Georgie Fame - The Ballad Of Bonnie And Clyde
GEORGIE FAME - THE BALLAD OF BONNIE AND CLYDE
(M. Murray; P. Callander)
CBS 3124

Bonnie and Clyde, were pretty lookin' people
But I can tell you people they were the devil's children
Bonnie and Clyde, began their evil doin'
One lazy afternoon around Savannah way

They robbed a store, and high-tailed out of 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 business
Reach for the sky, sweet talkin' Clyde would holler
While Bonnie loaded dollars into the julap bag

Now one brave man, he tried to take them alone
They left him lying in a pool of blood
And laughed about it all the way home

Bonnie and Clyde got to be public enemy number one
Running and hiding from every American lawmans gun
They used to laugh about dying
But deep inside they knew
That pretty soon they'd be lying
Beneath the ground together
Pushing up daisies to welcome the sun and the morning dew

Acting upon, reliable information
A federal deputation led a deadly ambush
When Bonnie and Clyde, went walking in the sunshine
A half a dozen carbine opened up on them

Bonnie and Clyde, they lived a lot together
And finally together
They died
