Well gather round me children [C] a [G] story I will tell
About pretty boy Floyd the [C] outlaw, the home I [G] knew him well _
It was in the town of [C] Shawnee on a [G] Saturday afternoon
His wife beside him in a wagon was into town they rode _

Then along come a deputy sheriff [C] in a manner [G] rather rude
Using vulgar words for [C] language is what [G] she overheard _
_ Then pretty boy grabbed the law chain [C] and the deputy [G] grabbed a gun
And in the fight that followed he [C] laid [G] that deputy down

_ [C] _ _ [G] _ _ _
Then he ran through the trees and bushes [C] where he lived a [G] life of shame
Every crime in Oklahoma [C] [G] was added to his name _
He ran through the trees and bushes [C] on the [G] Canadian river shore
Then many a starving farmer [C] opened [G] up his door

_ [G] _ _ [D] _ [G] _ _
_ [C] _ _ [G] _ It was in Oklahoma City [C] it was on a [G] Christmas day
A whole car load of groceries [C] with a letter [G] that did say
You say that I'm an outlaw [C] you say that [G] I'm a thief
Well here's a Christmas dinner [C] for families [G] on relief _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _

_ [C] _ _ [G] _ _ _
As through this life you travel [C]
you'll meet some [G] funny men
Some will rob you with a six gun and some with a fountain _ pen
As through this life you ramble as through this life you roam
You'll never see an [C] outlaw take a family [G] from their home
