None of them
D G D
If you'll gather 'ro…..und me, children, a story I will tell,
A A7 D
'bout Pretty Boy Floyd, an outlaw, Oklahoma knew him well.
D G D
It was in the to……wn of Shawnee, it was Saturday afternoon,
A A7 D
his wife beside him in his wagon as into town they rode.
D G D
There a deputy sher…iff approached him in a manner rather rude,
A A7 D
using vulgar words of language, an' his wife she overheard.
D G D
Pretty Boy grabbed a log chain, and the deputy grabbed his gun,
A A7 D
in the fight that followed he laid that deputy down.
D G D
Then he took to the trees and timber to live a life of shame,
A A7 D
every crime in Oklahoma was added to his name.
D G D
But there’s many a sta….rving farmer, the same old story told,
A A7 D
how this outlaw paid their mortgage and saved their little homes.
D G D
Others tell you o……f a stranger that comes to beg a meal,
A A7 D
and underneath his napkin left a thousand dollar bill.
D G D
It was in Oklaho……ma City, it was on a Christmas Day,
A A7 D
there come a whole car load of groceries with a letter that did say:
D G D
“Well, you say that I'm an outlaw, you say that I'm a thief,
A A7 D
here's a Christmas dinner for the families on relief.”
D G D
Now, as through this wo…….rld I ramble, I see lots of funny men,
A A7 D
some will rob you with a six-gun, some with a fountain pen.
D G D
But as through your life you travel, and as through your life you roam,
A A7 D
you will never see an outlaw drive a family from their home.
