You've heard the story of Jesse James Of how he lived and died? If you're still in need of something to read Here's the story of Bonnie and Clyde Now Bonnie and Clyde are the Barrow gang I am sure you all have read how they were and still And those who still Are usually found dying or dead They call them cold hearted killers They say they are heartless and mean But I say this with pride That I once knew Clyde when he was honest And a bright and clean But the laws fold around Kept taking him down and locking him up in a cell 'Til he said to me: "I'll never be free" So I'll meet a few of them in hell If a policeman is killed in Dallas And they have no clue or guide If they can't think or find They just wipe their slake clean And hang it on Bonnie and Clyde If they try to act like citizens And rent them a nice little flat About the third night They're invited to fight by a Sub gun's rat tat tat Some day they'll go down together They'll bury them side by side To few it will be grief to the law a relief But it's death for Bonnie and Clyde
