You've heard the story of Jesse James Of how he lived and died If you want more here's the story of Bonnie and Clyde They call 'em cold-blooded killers They say they're heartless and mean But I knew Clyde When he was upright and he was clean The law they took him down And locked him in a cell He said to me: I'll never be free So I'll meet them all in hell The road was dimly lit No highway sings to guide We made up our minds We wouldn't give up till we died Bonnie and Clyde Runnin' side by side Bonnie and Clyde Forever they will ride The road kept gettin' dimmer The we could hardly ser We fight all we can, man to man 'Cause we know we can't be free From heartbreak some have suffered From weariness some have died But all in all, your troubles are small Till you get like Bonnie and Clyde Bonnie and Clyde Runnin' side by side Bonnie and Clyde Forever they will ride We don't think we're desperate 'Cause the law always wins We've been shot at before But we don't ignore That death is the wage of sin Some day we'll go down together And they'll bury us side by side The law will believed, some will grieve The death of Bonnie and Clyde Bonnie and Clyde Together side by side Bonnie and Clyde Forever they will ride Bonnie and Clyde Runnin' side by side Bonnie and Clyde Forever Forever Forever they will ride
