kinky friedman - pretty boy floyd lyrics
gather round me children
a story i will tell
about pretty boy floyd, the outlaw
oklahoma knew him well
? twas in the town of shawnee
on a sat-rday afternoon
with his wife beside him in a wagon
it was into town they rode
well, a deputy sheriff called him
in a manner rather rude
using vulgar words of language
and his wife she overheard
well, pretty boy grabbed a log chain
the deputy grabbed his gun
and in the fight that followed
he laid that deputy down
he took to the woods and timber
he lived a life of shame
every crime in oklahoma
they laid on to his name
he took to the river bottoms long
the north canadian sh-r-
and many a starving farmer
he opened up his door
they tell about a stranger
the same old story goes
how pretty boy paid their mortgage
and he saved their little home
yeah, they tell about a stranger
who came to beg a meal
and underneath his napkin
he left a thousand dollar bill
into oklahoma city
it was on a christmas day
come a whole wagon load full of groceries
and a note on which did say
? you say that i? m an outlaw
you say that i? m a thief
well, here? s a christmas dinner
for your families on relief?
through this world i? ve rambled
i? ve seen many funny men
some will rob you with a six-gun
and some with a fountain pen
but as through your lives you travel, boy
as through your lives you roam
you won? t never see no outlaw
drive a family from their home
