Pretty Boy Floyd - Various[00:00:00]

If you'll gather 'round me children[00:00:11]

A story I will tell[00:00:14]

'Bout pretty boy Floyd an outlaw[00:00:16]

Oklahoma knew him well[00:00:19]

It was in the town of Shawnee[00:00:24]

A Saturday afternoon[00:00:26]

His wife beside him in his wagon[00:00:29]

As into town they rode[00:00:32]

There a deputy sheriff approached him[00:00:48]

In a manner rather rude[00:00:52]

Vulgar words of anger[00:00:54]

An' his wife she overheard[00:00:57]

So Pretty boy grabbed a log chain[00:01:01]

And the deputy grabbed his gun[00:01:04]

In the fight that followed[00:01:06]

He laid that deputy down[00:01:09]

So he took to the trees and timber[00:01:25]

To live a life of shame[00:01:28]

Every crime in Oklahoma[00:01:31]

Was added to his name[00:01:33]

But a many a starving farmer[00:01:37]

The same old story told[00:01:40]

How the outlaw paid their mortgage[00:01:43]

And saved their little homes[00:01:45]

Others tell you 'bout a stranger[00:01:50]

That come to beg a meal[00:01:52]

Underneath his napkin[00:01:55]

Left a thousand dollar bill[00:01:58]

It was in Oklahoma city[00:02:16]

It was on a Christmas day[00:02:19]

There was a whole car load of groceries[00:02:22]

Come with a note to say[00:02:24]

Well you say that I'm an outlaw[00:02:28]

You say that I'm a thief[00:02:31]

Here's a Christmas dinner[00:02:34]

For the families on relief[00:02:37]

Yes as through this world I've wandered[00:02:41]

I've seen lots of funny men[00:02:43]

Some will rob you with a six gun[00:02:46]

And some with a fountain pen[00:02:49]

And as through your life you travel[00:02:53]

Yes as through your life you roam[00:02:56]

You won't never see an outlaw[00:02:58]

Drive a family from their home[00:03:04]
