Well gather round me children |
[00:12.58] |
A story I will tell |
[00:14.61] |
About Pretty Boy Floyd, the outlaw |
[00:16.67] |
Homer knew him well |
[00:20.04] |
He was in the town of Shawnee on Saturday afternoon |
[00:23.84] |
His wife decided in a wagon and into town they rode |
[00:39.05] |
And along come a deputy sheriff |
[00:40.98] |
In a manner rather rude |
[00:43.07] |
Using vulgar words of language |
[00:45.35] |
His wife, she overheard |
[00:48.76] |
Then Pretty Boy Floyd grabbed a long chain |
[00:50.69] |
The deputy grabbed a gun |
[00:52.93] |
And in the fight that followed |
[00:54.87] |
He laid that deputy down |
[01:07.70] |
And he ran through the trees and bushes |
[01:09.63] |
He lived a life of shame |
[01:11.76] |
Every crime in oklahoma, was added to his name |
[01:17.19] |
He ran through trees and bushes |
[01:18.89] |
On the Canadian river shore |
[01:21.21] |
And many starving farmer opened up his door |
[01:35.85] |
Was in oklahoma city, it was on a Christmas Day |
[01:40.19] |
A car load of groceries with a letter that did say |
[01:45.67] |
You say that I'm an outlaw, you say that I'm a thief |
[01:49.94] |
Well, here's a Christmas dinner for the families on relief |
[02:04.83] |
As through this life you travel |
[02:06.87] |
You meet some funny men |
[02:09.10] |
Some will rob you with a six-gun |
[02:11.09] |
And some with a fountain pen |
[02:14.38] |
As through this life you ramble |
[02:16.35] |
As through this life you roam |
[02:18.44] |
You'll never see an outlaw |
[02:20.59] |
Take a family from your home |
