You’ve all read the story of Jesse James

How he lived, how he died

Gave you a kick — huh — you’re kickin’ for more

Bonnie and Clyde, Bonnie and Clyde

So get this, Clyde got himself a girl

She’s beautiful and her name is Bonnie

They formed a gang of two as much as we know

Their names, Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow

Bonnie and Clyde, Bonnie and Clyde

When I first met Clyde, I can remember

Strictly on the level, loved me tender

I suppose society’s to blame

Never had the chance to make a good name

Bonnie and Clyde, Bonnie and Clyde

Everything’s been written black and white

They say we kill for pleasure, gun to jack knife

It’s only when the teller takes to screamin’

A trigger-happy smile gets pulled with meaning

Bonnie and Clyde, Bonnie and Clyde

Everytime a copper stops a bullet

A store gets done, they’re sure to say we pulled it

The headlines always read the morning after

Murder signed - Clyde Barrow, Bonnie Parker

Bonnie and Clyde, Bonnie and Clyde

No use dreaming what life could have been like

A nine to five day job as clean as snow white

Within three days comes the sound tac tac tac

Of machine guns coming back to attack tack tack

Bonnie and Clyde, Bonnie and Clyde

Takin’ in first prize, lucky couple

All they had to do was die in double

The cops were garne, the Barrows went down fighting

That autumn day, green leaves fell like lightning

Bonnie and Clyde, Bonnie and Clyde

One of these days, together, six feet under

They’II lay us down, in unmarked graves, I wonder

Who’II give a damn, who’II want to know tomorrow

Who was Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow

Bonnie and Clyde, Bonnie and Clyde
