Me from There, PaNo, the boy from Long Island refers to a bartender Billy used to know named Billy also.On the day of, however, he escaped and moved south! If you're interested in the Kid you can read up on him at or as well! Interesting stuff! BUT, as inaccurate as the song is, historians have said there was a time when BtK was sentenced to a hanging. Some say BtK was born in Mahattan, others say different. There are theories and such, but nothing factual. Very little is known about him! No one knows really where he was born or really what his parents names were. You know, something interesting about Billy the Kid is that most of his life is a mystery. Jason from Hicksville, OhVery true.the Billy from Oyster Bay is not B.J.! If you look in the liner notes from the "Songs In the Attic" album, you'll see where he talks about that.Olivia from Webster Gro Ves, MoAll of this is true except this isn't written about billy joel, its written about someone else he knew named billy Tell me what its like in the night when I aint by your side You could catch a vibe for some time, but she wont do you right Baby, wont you come on by No.Mike from Hamilton, NjThe song says "East and West of the Rio Grande" but the Rio Grande runs East to West, so it would have to be "North and South of the Rio Grande" to be accurate.Bill Crawford from Oro Valley, AzThe Rio Grande does flow north to south from southwest Colorado to the Gulf of Mexico.Please update your geology books in NJ and we do drive cars not ride horses here in the west also :).Perhaps I'll consult a 'geology book' later on if any conflicts arise regarding any rock formations or strata along it's course. See who worked on Outlaw Kinda Vibe Single by Austin Tolliver Jaxsta on Jaxsta, the story behind the music. Charles from Glenside, PaIt appears to me that the Rio Grande runs predominantly from NW to SE, I gleaned this from an Atlas of the USA.Yes and he knows the Rio Grande runs East to West, but North to South didn't have the same punch in the context of the lyrics. I read an interview where he said he also wanted to do a movie sountrack but no one every asked him to. Randy from Reading, PaI think some of you take thinks too literally.He wrote it in the "Songs in the Attic" notes. Richard from Somerdale, NjAs someone probably said below this, the boy with a six-pack in his hand is not Billy Joel, but a bartender from Long Island.
