Way up yonder on a mountain curve, it's way up yonder in the piney wood, and I give that rolling four to shove, and I was going to coast as far as I could. Commenced coasting, picking up speed. was a happy intern. I didn't make it. Man alive, I'm telling you, the fiddles and the guitars really flew. That Ford took off like a flying squirrel and it flew halfway around the world.

If you'll gather round me, children, a story I will tell About pretty boy Floyd, an outlaw, Oklahoma knew him well It was in the town of Shawnee a Saturday afternoon His wife beside him in his wagon as into town they rode There a deputy sheriff approached him in a manner rather rude. Vulgar words of anger and his wife she overheard. Pretty boy grabbed a log chain and the deputy grabbed his gun.

In the fight that followed he laid that deputy down. Then he took to the trees and timber to live a life of shame Every crime in Oklahoma was added to his name But a many a starving farmer the same old story told

How the outlaw paid their mortgage and saved their little homes Others tell you about a stranger that come to beg a meal Underneath his napkin left a thousand dollar bill It was in Oklahoma City

It was on a Christmas day There was a whole carload of groceries Come with a note to say Well, you say that I'm an outlaw You say that I'm a thief Here's a Christmas dinner For the families on relief Guess as through this world I've wandered

I've seen lots of funny men Some will rob you with a six-gun And some with a fountain pen And as through your life you travel Yes, as through your life you roam You will never see an outlaw Drive a family from their home.

I know the police cause you trouble. They cause trouble everywhere. But when you die and go to heaven, you'll find no policeman there. So go to sleep.
