Georgie Fame - The Ballad Of Bonnie & Clyde

Bonnie and Clyde were pretty looking people But I can tell you people They were the devil's children Bonnie and Clyde began their evil doing One lazy afternoon down Savannah way They robbed a store and Hightailed outa 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-talking Clyde would holler As Bonnie loaded dollars in the dewlap bag Now one brave man-he tried to take 'em 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 lawman's gun They used to laugh about dying But deep inside 'em 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 laid a deadly ambush When Bonnie and Clyde came walking in the sunshine A half a dozen carbines opened up on them Bonnie and Clyde They lived a lot together And finally They died together.
