《Pretty Boy Floyd》歌词

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

[00:00:10] If you'll gather 'round me children

[00:00:12] A story I will tell

[00:00:15] 'Bout Pretty Boy Floyd an outlaw

[00:00:17] Oklahoma knew him well

[00:00:23] It was in the town of Shawnee

[00:00:28] A Saturday afternoon

[00:00:31] His wife beside him in his wagon

[00:00:34] As into town they rode

[00:00:40] There a deputy sheriff approached him

[00:00:43] In a manner rather rude

[00:00:47] Vulgar words of anger

[00:00:49] An' his wife she overheard

[00:00:58] Pretty Boy grabbed a log chain

[00:01:00] And the deputy grabbed his gun;

[00:01:02] In the fight that followed

[00:01:05] He laid that deputy down

[00:01:09] Then he took to the trees and timber

[00:01:14] To live a life of shame;

[00:01:18] Every crime in Oklahoma

[00:01:20] Was added to his name

[00:01:27] But a many a starving farmer

[00:01:31] The same old story told

[00:01:34] How the outlaw paid their mortgage

[00:01:37] And saved their little homes

[00:01:42] Others tell you 'bout a stranger

[00:01:45] That come to beg a meal

[00:01:47] Underneath his napkin

[00:01:49] Left a thousand dollar bill

[00:01:58] It was in Oklahoma City

[00:02:04] It was on a Christmas Day

[00:02:08] There was a whole car load of groceries

[00:02:10] Come with a note to say:

[00:02:15] Well you say that I'm an outlaw

[00:02:17] You say that I'm a thief

[00:02:20] Here's a Christmas dinner

[00:02:22] For the families on relief

[00:02:28] Yes as through this world I've wandered

[00:02:33] I've seen lots of funny men;

[00:02:37] Some will rob you with a six-gun

[00:02:40] And some with a fountain pen

[00:02:44] And as through your life you travel

[00:02:50] Yes as through your life you roam

[00:02:55] You won't never see an outlaw

[00:02:59] Drive a family from their home
