《Preatty Boy Floyd》歌词

[00:00:00] Preatty Boy Floyd - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)

[00:00:29] Come gather 'round me children

[00:00:36] A story I will tell

[00:00:39] Of pretty boy Floyd an outlaw

[00:00:42] Oklahoma knew him well

[00:00:47] It was in the town of Shawnee

[00:00:53] On the Saturday afternoon

[00:00:55] His wife beside him in his wagon

[00:00:58] As into town they rode

[00:01:03] There a deputy sheriff approached him

[00:01:10] In a manner rather rude

[00:01:12] Using vulgar words of language

[00:01:15] And his wife she overheard

[00:01:20] Pretty boy grabbed a log chain

[00:01:27] And the deputy grabbed a gun

[00:01:30] And in the fight that followed

[00:01:33] He laid that deputy down

[00:01:51] He took to the trees and timbers

[00:01:58] To live a life of shame

[00:02:01] Every crime in Oklahoma was added to his name

[00:02:08] Yes he took to the trees and timbers

[00:02:15] On that Canadian river's shore

[00:02:18] And our all found a welcome

[00:02:20] At a many a farmer's door

[00:02:25] There's a many a starving farmer

[00:02:31] The same old story told

[00:02:33] How this outlaw paid their mortgage

[00:02:36] And saved their little home

[00:02:41] Others tell you 'bout the stranger

[00:02:48] That come to beg a meal

[00:02:51] And underneath his napkin

[00:02:54] Left a thousand dollar bill

[00:03:03] It was in Oklahoma city

[00:03:10] It was on a Christmas day

[00:03:12] There come a whole car load of groceries

[00:03:15] With a letter that did say

[00:03:19] You say that I'm an outlaw

[00:03:27] You say that I'm a thief

[00:03:29] Here's a Christmas dinner

[00:03:32] For the families on relief

[00:03:40] Now as through this world I ramble

[00:03:47] I see lots of funny men

[00:03:50] Some will rob you with a six gun

[00:03:53] And some with a fountain pen

[00:03:58] But as through this world you travel

[00:04:05] As through this world you roam

[00:04:09] You never see an outlaw

[00:04:13] Drive a family from their home
