Thanks to all for help on "death of Willie" but so far no go.
Certain lyrics I remember are:


They knew that he was dyin' by the freckles on his breath.
His eyeballs were draggin' in the mud.
-----------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------
No more upon the mat will he tease poor pussy cat.
Our darlin' blue-eyed boy has kicked the bucket.
Bang, bang.


It is more a hillbilly song than country and was sung by Bob Dyer, an American, who migrated to Australia after WWII.
