Pretty Boy Floyd - Cisco Houston[00:00:00]
If you'll gather 'round me children[00:00:04]
A story I will tell[00:00:10]
'Bout pretty boy Floyd an outlaw[00:00:14]
Oklahoma knew him well[00:00:17]
It was in the town of Shawnee[00:00:22]
A Saturday afternoon[00:00:27]
His wife beside him in his wagon[00:00:30]
As into town they rode[00:00:34]
There a deputy sheriff approached him[00:00:40]
In a manner rather rude[00:00:44]
Vulgar words of anger[00:00:48]
An' his wife she overheard[00:00:51]
Pretty boy grabbed a log chain[00:00:56]
And the deputy grabbed his gun[00:01:01]
In the fight that followed[00:01:05]
He laid that deputy down[00:01:08]
Then he took to the trees and timber[00:01:14]
To live a life of shame[00:01:18]
Every crime in Oklahoma[00:01:22]
Was added to his name[00:01:26]
Then he took to the trees and timber[00:01:30]
On that Canadian River's shore[00:01:34]
And the outlaw found a welcome[00:01:37]
At many a farmer's door[00:01:42]
But a many a starving farmer[00:01:48]
The same old story told[00:01:52]
How the outlaw paid their mortgage[00:01:55]
And saved their little homes[00:01:58]
Others tell you 'bout a stranger[00:02:02]
That come to beg a meal[00:02:06]
Underneath his napkin[00:02:10]
Left a thousand dollar bill[00:02:13]
It was in Oklahoma City[00:02:18]
It was on a Christmas day[00:02:23]
There was a whole car load of groceries[00:02:26]
Come with a note to say[00:02:30]
Well you say that I'm an outlaw[00:02:34]
You say that I'm a thief[00:02:38]
Here's a Christmas dinner[00:02:41]
For the families on relief[00:02:45]
Yes as through this world I've wandered[00:02:50]
I've seen lots of funny men[00:02:55]
Some will rob you with a six gun[00:02:59]
And some with a fountain pen[00:03:02]
And as through your life you travel[00:03:07]
Yes as through your life you roam[00:03:12]
You won't never see an outlaw[00:03:16]
Drive a family from their home[00:03:19]
