Bonnie Parker: [reading her poem]

You've heard the story of Jesse James

 Of how he lived and died

If you're still in need / Of something to read

 Here's the story of Bonnie and Clyde.

Now Bonnie and Clyde are the Barrow gang

 I'm sure you all have read  How they rob and steal

 And those who squeal Are usually found dyin' or dead.

They call them cold-hearted killers They say they are heartless and mean 

 But I say this with pride That I once knew Clyde  

When he was honest and upright and clean.

But the laws fooled around Kept takin' him down

And lockin' him up in a cell Till he said to me: "I'll never be free

 So I'll meet a few of them in Hell."

 If a policeman is killed in Dallas And they have no clue to guide

If they can't find a fiend They just wipe their slate clean

 And hang it on Bonnie and Clyde If they try to act like citizens

And rent them a nice little flat About the third night

They're invited to fight  By a sub-guns' rat-a-tat-tat.

Some day, they'll go down together  They'll bury them side by side

To a few, it'll be grief To the law, a relief

But it's death for Bonnie and Clyde.
