Preatty Boy Floyd (Live) - Joan Baez[00:00:00]

Written by：Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]

Can gather round the children a story I will tell[00:00:28]

A pretty boy Floyd the outlaw Oklahoma knew him well[00:00:38]

Was in the town of Shawnee on a Saturday afternoon[00:00:46]

His wife beside him in a wagon as into town they rode[00:00:54]

There a deputy sheriff approached him[00:01:02]

In a manner rather rude[00:01:09]

Using vulgar words of language and his wife she overheard[00:01:12]

And pretty boy Floyd grabbed a long chain and the deputy grabbed a gun[00:01:20]

And in the fight that followed he laid that deputy down[00:01:29]

Then he took to the trees and timbers[00:01:50]

To lived a life of shame[00:01:58]

Every crime in Oklahoma was added to his name[00:02:00]

Yes he took to the trees and timbers[00:02:07]

On that Canadian River's shore[00:02:14]

And Floyd found a welcome[00:02:17]

At a many a farmer's door[00:02:20]

There's a many a starving farmer[00:02:24]

The same story told[00:02:31]

How this outlaw paid their mortgage[00:02:33]

And saved their little home[00:02:36]

Others tell you 'bout a stranger[00:02:40]

Who came to beg a meal[00:02:48]

And underneath his napkin[00:02:50]

Left a thousand dollar bill[00:02:53]

It was in Oklahoma City[00:03:02]

It was on a Christmas Day[00:03:10]

In a whole car load of groceries[00:03:12]

In a letter that did say[00:03:15]

When you say that I'm an outlaw[00:03:19]

And you say that I'm a thief[00:03:26]

Here's a Christmas dinner[00:03:29]

For the families on relief[00:03:32]

When as through this world I ramble[00:03:40]

I see lots of funny men[00:03:47]

Some will rob you with a six gun[00:03:50]

Some with a fountain pen[00:03:53]

As through this world you travel[00:03:58]

As through as were you roam[00:04:05]

You never see an outlaw[00:04:09]

Drive a family from their home[00:04:12]
