Pretty Boy Floyd - Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]

If you'll gather 'round me children [00:00:10]

A story I will tell[00:00:12]

'Bout Pretty Boy Floyd an outlaw [00:00:15]

Oklahoma knew him well [00:00:17]

It was in the town of Shawnee [00:00:23]

A Saturday afternoon [00:00:28]

His wife beside him in his wagon[00:00:31]

As into town they rode [00:00:34]

There a deputy sheriff approached him[00:00:40]

In a manner rather rude [00:00:43]

Vulgar words of anger [00:00:47]

An' his wife she overheard [00:00:49]

Pretty Boy grabbed a log chain [00:00:58]

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

In the fight that followed[00:01:02]

He laid that deputy down [00:01:05]

Then he took to the trees and timber[00:01:09]

To live a life of shame;[00:01:14]

Every crime in Oklahoma[00:01:18]

Was added to his name [00:01:20]

But a many a starving farmer[00:01:27]

The same old story told[00:01:31]

How the outlaw paid their mortgage[00:01:34]

And saved their little homes [00:01:37]

Others tell you 'bout a stranger[00:01:42]

That come to beg a meal [00:01:45]

Underneath his napkin[00:01:47]

Left a thousand dollar bill [00:01:49]

It was in Oklahoma City [00:01:58]

It was on a Christmas Day [00:02:04]

There was a whole car load of groceries[00:02:08]

Come with a note to say:[00:02:10]

Well you say that I'm an outlaw [00:02:15]

You say that I'm a thief [00:02:17]

Here's a Christmas dinner[00:02:20]

For the families on relief [00:02:22]

Yes as through this world I've wandered[00:02:28]

I've seen lots of funny men;[00:02:33]

Some will rob you with a six-gun [00:02:37]

And some with a fountain pen [00:02:40]

And as through your life you travel [00:02:44]

Yes as through your life you roam [00:02:50]

You won't never see an outlaw[00:02:55]

Drive a family from their home[00:02:59]
