[00:00:04] Written by：Trad Guthrie

[00:00:09] If you'll gather 'round me children

[00:00:14] A story I will tell

[00:00:18] 'Bout Pretty Boy Floyd an outlaw

[00:00:22] Oklahoma knew him well

[00:00:27] It was in the town of Shawnee

[00:00:31] A Saturday afternoon

[00:00:33] His wife beside him in his wagon

[00:00:37] As into town they rode

[00:00:41] There a deputy sheriff approached him

[00:00:44] In a manner rather rude

[00:00:47] He was in vulgar words of angry

[00:00:51] An' his wife she overheard

[00:00:57] Pretty Boy grabbed a log chain

[00:00:59] And the deputy grabbed his gun

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

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

[00:01:12] He headed to the hills

[00:01:14] Wood and lamb

[00:01:15] To live a life of shame

[00:01:17] Every crime in Oklahoma

[00:01:21] Was added to his name

[00:01:26] Now there a many a starvin' farmer

[00:01:30] The same old story told

[00:01:33] How the outlaw paid their mortgage

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

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

[00:01:44] That come to beg a meal

[00:01:46] Underneath his napkin

[00:01:50] Left a thousand dollar bill

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

[00:02:01] It was on a Christmas Day

[00:02:04] There was a whole car load of groceries

[00:02:09] And a letter that to say

[00:02:13] He said that I'm an outlaw

[00:02:14] You say that I'm a thief

[00:02:16] Now here's a Christmas dinner

[00:02:18] For the families on relief

[00:02:23] Now as through this world I've wandered

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

[00:02:32] Some will rob you with a six gun

[00:02:36] And some with a fountain pen

[00:02:41] And as through your life you travel

[00:02:43] Yes as through your life you roam

[00:02:48] You won't never see an outlaw

[00:02:52] Drive a family from their home
