Bonnie And Clyde Lyrics - Singles - Georgie Fame

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 together, 

They died.
