melanie safka - pretty boy floyd lyrics
come gather ’round me children
there’s a story i will tell
about pretty boy floyd an outlaw
oklahoma knew him well
it was in the town of shawnee
on a sat-rday afternoon
his wife beside him in the wagon
and into town they rode
the deputy sheriff approached them
in a manner rather rude
using vulgar words of language
and his wife she overheard
now, pretty boy grabbed a long chain
and the sheriff he grabbed a gun
and in the fight that followed
he laid the deputy down
he took to the trees and rivers
oh he’s gonna lead a life of shame
and every crime in oklahoma
was added to his name
in oklahoma city
it was on a christmas day
came a whole carload of groceries
and a letter that did say
“well you say that i’m a outlaw
and you say that i’m a thief
well, here’s a christmas dinner
for the children on relief”
as through the world i ramble
well as through the world i roam
i ain’t never seen an outlaw
drive a family from their home
as through the world i rambled
i’ve seen some funny men
some are gonna rob you with a six-gun
some will do it with a fountain pen
some are gonna rob you with a six-gun
some will do it with a fountain pen
