Pretty Boy Floyd - Jack Elliott[00:00:00]

If you gather round the children[00:00:08]

A story I will tell[00:00:13]

A Pretty Boy Floyd the outlaw[00:00:18]

Oklahoma knew him well[00:00:21]

It was in the town of Shawnee was Saturday afternoon[00:00:27]

His wife beside him in wagon as into town they rode[00:00:33]

Her deputy sheriff approached in a manner rather rude[00:00:41]

Using vulgar words of language[00:00:47]

His wife she overheard[00:00:50]

Pretty boy grabbed a long chain[00:00:57]

And the deputy grabbed a gun[00:00:59]

And in the fight that followed[00:01:01]

He laid that deputy down[00:01:04]

He fly to the hill[00:01:12]

To live a life of shame[00:01:15]

Every crimenal in Oklahoma was added to his name[00:01:17]

But a many a starving farmer[00:01:26]

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

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

Saved their little homes[00:01:37]

Others tell you about a stranger[00:01:42]

That come to beg a meal[00:01:44]

Underneath his napkin[00:01:46]

Left a thousand dollar bill[00:01:50]

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

It was on a Christmas Day[00:02:01]

There was a whole carload of groceries[00:02:04]

And a letter that did say[00:02:08]

You say that I'm an outlaw[00:02:12]

You say that I'm a thief[00:02:14]

Here's a Christmas dinner for the families on relief[00:02:16]

As through this world I ramble[00:02:23]

I've seen lots of funny men[00:02:28]

Some rob you with a six-gun[00:02:32]

Some with a fountain pen[00:02:36]

And as through your life you travel[00:02:40]

As through your life you roam[00:02:43]

You'll never see an outlaw[00:02:47]

Drive a family from their home[00:02:52]
