A day in the life of Bonnie and Clyde lyrics

It was the 10th day of August

Way back in '33

I roller-skated around in the town where I lived

Who did I happen to see?

Well, I was close to the bank

When the battered old Lincoln pulled alongside

And you'll never believe who got out of that car

It was Bonnie and Clyde

She looked as sweet as a primrose

With hair the color of sand

And then I noticed the blue sealed cold automatic

She held in each hand

When I saw the big of a barrel shotgun

He held at his side

Then I knew that our bank was in for a visit

From Bonnie and Clyde

And while they were in there

The birds didn't sing and the wind didn't blow

And the world kinda held its breath

And I could just picture

The folks in the bank with their hands in the air

Awful trembly and scared to death

And then the bank door flew open

And Clyde and Bonnie backed down

And they were giggling and laughing

As happy as kids

Of that there wasn't a dough

As she got in the car, she looked down at me

What do you think?

She gave me a grin, blew me a kiss

Winked me a wink

And then they drove away

They shot 'em dead in a meadow

They laid there side by side

And lots of people for hundreds of miles around

Were glad to hear that they died

But I know somewhere, there was a pair

Of women who cried

Yes, the broken hearted mothers

Of poor Bonnie and Clyde

The broken hearted mothers

Of Bonnie and Clyde...
