The Story of Bonnie & Clyde
This is about a couple who lived on the edgeTill the day they both died
This is the story of
The legendary Bonnie & Clyde
Bonnie Parker was a waitress
In a little diner so called bar
Where one night she caught a burgler
Trying to steal her momma's car
A handsome young Stallion
With a pistol strapped to his side
She was so intrigued and captivated
By this sly man named Clyde
So she ran off with this Clyde Barrow
Even became his partner in crime
Killing and robbing and stealing
And never doing a minute of time
They came upon a gas station
Robbing it was their plan
But instead they kidnapped the attendant
C.W. Moss, a kind of dim-witted man
C.W. soon fitted right in
And their crime spree shifted into high gear
They kept on with the robbings and killings
Showing no signs of fear
Jealous of the fortune, Clydes Brother Buck
He and his wife Blanche wanted in
So clyde agreed to them joining the gang
That's where all the trouble began
Blanche was a preachers daughter
She thought she did no wrong
She met her match with Bonnie Parker
Cause they didn't even get along
Buck and Clyde were known killers now
Were corrupt and had acquired a little fame.
Blanche didn't like it at all
And on Bonnie, laid all the blame
They'd graduated from the small time
And were now hitting the banks
So they called in the "Big Guns"
An Old Texas Ranger named Frank
With all the robbing and killing
They'd made theirselves a name
But Frank Hammer was out for Justice
He wasn't there to play no game
He came out of retirement
Just to hunt the two down
There was alot of talk and gossip
When he and his rangers came into town
He had them cornered in a bank
In a shootout the bullets began to fly
Buck was shot in the chest
He had to lay there and die
Looking for a way out
They left Blanche behind
Buckshot filled her eyes
And now she's permantly blind
Scurring out the back
C.W., Bonnie and Clyde
All bloody and skinned up
Looking for a place to hide
Not clearly thinking right
C.W. drove right to his dad
Seeing how corrupt his son had become
The man became extreamly mad
He didn't like the idea
But he let them stay
He told them when they were well
They could be on their way
Mr. Moss didn't fancy Bonnie & Clyde
So he came up with a plan
He picked up the phone and dialed one day
And said, "Get me the Man"
"Frank Hammer, Texas Ranger"
Is what the voice on the other end said
I got Bonnie & Clyde here,
You want em' Alive or Dead?
Together they sat up an ambush
On a lonely Louisiana Road
Not very far at all
From old Man Moss's humble abode
Acting as bait, he flattened his tire
And there in the road he sat
Along came Bonnie & Clyde
He stood to his feet waving his hat
They slowed down to see
"I got a flat" old man Moss said
Clyde got out to help the man
They opened fire and shot both of them dead
Through all the killing and robbing
Bonnie Parker had a story to tell
She was quite the little poet
And wrote very well
"The street Girl" & "The story of Suicide Sal"
Two she wrote before she died
But the best and last one she wrote was
"The Story Of Bonnie & Clyde"
