The Legend Of Bonnie and Clyde
Recorded by Merle Haggard
Written and recorded by Merle Haggard and Bonnie Owens
G D7 G
Bonnie was a waitress in a small cafe
D7 G
Clyde Barrow was the rounder that took her away
C G
They both robbed and killed until both of them died
D7 G
So goes the Legend of Bonnie and Clyde
D7 G
The poems that she wrote of the life that they led
D7 G
Told of the lawmen left dying or dead
C G
Some say that Clyde made her life a shame
D7 G
But the legend made Bonnie the head of the game
D7 G
The rampage grew wilder with each passing day
D7 G
The odds growing smaller with each get a way
C G
With the end growing closer the harder they fought
D7 G
With blood on their hands they were bound to get caught
D7 G
They drove back from town on one bright summer day
D7 G
When a man they befriended stepped out in the way
C G
With no thought of dying they pulled to the side
D7 G
But death lay there waiting for Bonnie and Clyde
D7 G
Two years or running was ended that day
D7 G
For robbing and killing they both had to pay
C G
But we'll always remember how they lived and died
D7 G
So goes the Legend of Bonnie and Clyde
