The Baliad of Bonnie and Clyde

Bonnie and Clyde

were pratty lookin’ people

but I can tell you people they were the devil’s children

Bonnie and Clyde

began their evil doin’

one lazy afteraoon

down Savannah way

they robbed astore

and hightailed out a that town.

Got clean away

in a stolen car

and waited till the heat died down.

Bonnie and Clyde

advanced their reputation

and made the graduation into the Banking bus'ness

«Reach for the sky»

sweet talking Clyde would holler

as Bonnie loaded dollars into the dewlap bag

Now one brave man

he tried to take them alone

they left him Iying in a pool of blood

and laughd about, it ali the way home

Bonnie and Clyde

got to be public anemy number one running and hiding from ev’ry American

lawman's

they used to laugh about dyin'

But deep inside them they knew

that pretty soon they'd be Iyin'

Beneath the ground together

Pubbin up daisies to weIcome the soon and the moraing dew.

Acting upon reliable information

a fed'ral deputation laid a deadly ambush when Bonnie e Clyde came walking in the sunshine

A alf a dozen carbines opened up on them.

Bonnie and Clyde

they lived a lot together

and finaily together they died.
