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

Written by：Woody Guthrie[00:00:01]

If you'll gather 'round me children[00:00:02]

A story[00:00:07]

I will tell[00:00:08]

Pretty Boy Floyd an outlaw[00:00:11]

Oklahoma knew him well[00:00:14]

It was in the town of Shawnee[00:00:18]

In a Saturday afternoon[00:00:24]

His wife beside him in his wagon[00:00:28]

As into town they rode[00:00:31]

There a deputy sheriff approached him[00:00:36]

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

Vulgar words of anger[00:00:46]

An' his wife she overheard[00:00:50]

Pretty Boy grabbed a log chain[00:00:55]

And the deputy grabbed his gun[00:00:57]

In the fight that followed[00:00:59]

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

There's many a starving farmer[00:01:07]

The same old story told[00:01:14]

How the outlaw paid their mortgage[00:01:18]

And saved their little homes[00:01:21]

Others tell you 'bout a stranger[00:01:28]

That come to beg a meal[00:01:35]

Underneath his napkin[00:01:40]

Left a thousand dollar bill[00:01:44]

It was in Oklahoma City[00:01:49]

It was on a Christmas Day[00:01:57]

There was a whole car load of groceries[00:02:01]

There's a letter write to say[00:02:04]

Well you say that[00:02:09]

I'm an outlaw[00:02:10]

You say that[00:02:11]

I'm a thief[00:02:12]

Here's a Christmas dinner[00:02:13]

Families on relief[00:02:15]

Now through this world[00:02:21]

I've wandered[00:02:26]

I've seen lots of funny men[00:02:29]

Some will rob you with a six gun[00:02:33]

Some with a fountain pen[00:02:37]

But through your life you travel[00:02:41]

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[00:02:58]
