Lyrics:
Well her name was
bonnie parker
and she wore a
suit of red

Just a poor girl
from Rowena
that took the devil
by the hand

Nineteen and married
when first she met her clyde
she would be his little blue-eyed gal
forever by his side.


And her mother cried,
Bonnie come home.
Bonnie come home.

She liked to
pose pictures
on their killing spree
when they weren't robbing
and killing
she wrote poetry

about the trail's end
suicide sal,
outlaws and the things they see

No colder blood
was running
And they'd shoot
you just to watch you bleed.

Bonnie, come home.
Bonnie, come home

Plenty bad can
happen falling in
with the wrong men

death's the wage
we all pay
for a life led of sin

They were cold blooded killers
shot dead in the light of day
a machine gun in her hand
and this upon her grave:


*As the flowers are all made sweeter
by the sunshine and the dew
so this old world is made brighter
by the lives of folks like you.

Bonnie, come home
Bonnie, come home

Jim, Kelli and Martyn all on one track - too much fun!

Lovely vocal Kelli, great backing track Jim and a nice fiddle Mart.

Kelli this is really, really beautifully sung - and a good story to boot.

Production is absolutely first class - and the little bits of subtle electronica work a treat Jim (as with Red River Valley).

Two in one day :)
