lirik lagu the byrds - pretty boy floyd
written by woody guthrie
well gather round children, a story i will tell
about pretty boy floyd the outlaw, oklahoma knew him well
was in the town of shawnee on a sat-rday afternoon
his wife beside him in a wagon as into town they rode
and along come a deputy sheriff in a manner rather rude
using vulgar words of language and his wife she overheard
and pretty boy floyd grabbed a long chain, and the deputy grabbed a gun
and in the fight that followed, he laid that deputy down
then he ran through the trees and bushes and lived a life of shame
every crime in oklahoma was added to his name
he ran through trees and bushes on the canadian river sh-r-
and many a starving farmer opened up his door
it was in oklahoma city, it was on a christmas day
a whole carload of groceries and a letter that did say
well you say that i’m an outlaw, you say that i’m a thief
well, here’s a christmas dinner for the families on relief
as through this life you travel, you meet some funny men
some rob you with a six-gun, some with a fountain pen
as through this life you ramble, as through this life you roam
you’ll never see an outlaw take a family from their home
