To Sheila (acoustic)
[bow, including Billy and the band posing in front of the crowd for Kristin Burns to take pictures, followed by Billy throwing his hat into the crowd; band begins to walk offstage but Billy gestures for them to come back]
BC: We’ll do one more song? Okay, if we’re gonna do one more song, I need my hat back. Heh heh heh. My friends, it ain’t gonna happen. No. Hey, thank you, thank you, thank you. I think in the last year, we’ve probably been in about 20 different countries. And uh, Mexico has treated us better than any country. So hopefully, it won’t be 10 years before we come back, heh heh heh heh. Maybe like seven or eight. Heh heh. Heh, anyway, so we dedicate this last song to you, thank you very much, god bless you.
Muzzle
(BC immediately after lyrics finish: Thank you!)
