Bobbie Gentry - Ode To Billy Joe

You know the story. Billy Joe throws something off a bridge and later decides to go after it. Sounds like a good case for "Law & Order". Live performance from the Smothers Brothers show. PLEASE...

I think, the question ist, what she and Billy joe threw off the bridge before. Maybe the story is more weird than it seems.

Wow, what a performance. She could sure sing and play her guitar. I heard this song when I was a little kid and I never forgot it. Had no idea what the song is about since I didn't speak English back then. This song can stir up some emotions.
