letra de pretty boy floyd - utah phillips
if you’ll gather ’round me, children
a story i will tell
’bout pretty boy floyd, an outlaw
oklahoma knew him well
was in oklahoma city… (nope.)
it was in the town of shawnee
on a sat-rday afternoon
his wife beside him in his wagon
as into town they rode
a deputy sheriff approached him
in a manner rather rude
with vulgar words of language
that miss floyd overheard
well pretty boy grabbed a log chain
the deputy grabbed his gun;
and in the fight that followed
he laid that deputy down
he took to the trees and timbers
to lead a life of shame;
every crime in oklahoma
was added to his name
he took to the trees and timbers
down by the river sh-r-
but pretty boy found found a welcome
at every farmer’s door
there’s a many a starving family
the same old story told
how the outlaw paid the mortgage
and saved their little homes
others tell of a stranger
who come to beg a meal
and underneath the napkin
slipped a thousand dollar bill
was in oklahoma city
upon one christmas day
come a whole car load of groceries
with a note to say:
well, you say that i’m an outlaw
you say i am a thief
well here’s a christmas dinners
for the families on relief
now, as through this world you ramble
there’s seen lots of funny men;
some will rob you with a six-gun
some with a fountain pen
now, as through this world you ramble
as through this world you roam
you won’t ever find an outlaw
drive a family from it’s home
