Pretty Boy Floyd - Woody Guthrie/Bess Hawes[00:00:00]

If you'll gather 'round me children[00:00:08]

A story I will tell[00:00:11]

'Bout Pretty Boy Floyd an outlaw[00:00:13]

Oklahoma knew him well[00:00:15]

It was in the town of Shawnee[00:00:22]

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[00:00:38]

In a manner rather rude[00:00:42]

Vulgar words of anger[00:00:46]

An' his wife she overheard[00:00:48]

Pretty Boy grabbed a log chain[00:00:56]

And the deputy grabbed his gun[00:00:58]

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

He laid that deputy down[00:01:03]

Then he took to the trees and timber[00:01:07]

To live a life of shame[00:01:13]

Every crime in Oklahoma[00:01:16]

Was added to his name[00:01:19]

But a many a starving farmer[00:01:25]

The same old story told[00:01:29]

How the outlaw paid their mortgage[00:01:32]

And saved their little homes[00:01:35]

Others tell you 'bout a stranger[00:01:41]

That come to beg a meal[00:01:43]

Underneath his napkin[00:01:46]

Left a thousand dollar bill[00:01:48]

It was in Oklahoma City[00:01:57]

It was on a Christmas Day[00:02:03]

There was a whole car load of groceries[00:02:07]

Come with a note to say[00:02:09]

Well you say that I'm an outlaw[00:02:13]

You say that I'm a thief[00:02:16]

Here's a Christmas dinner[00:02:19]

For the families on relief[00:02:20]

Yes as through this world I've wandered[00:02:26]

I've seen lots of funny men[00:02:32]

Some will rob you with a six-gun[00:02:35]

And some with a fountain pen[00:02:38]

And as through your life you travel[00:02:42]

Yes as through your life you roam[00:02:48]

You won't never see an outlaw[00:02:53]

Drive a family from their home[00:02:57]
