Machine Gun Kelly Lyrics - Mud Slide Slim And The Blue Horizon - James Taylor

I'll tell you about Machine Gun Kelly 

He rode along the outlaw trail. 

Machine Gun Kelly was a simple man 

But the woman was as hard as hell. 

Watch out Machine Gun, 

Don't let her run you round. 

Don't let the woman put you six feet 

In the ground, Machine Gun. 

I'll tell you about Katherine Kelly, 

Tired of being such small time, now. 

Figured they'd kidnap a rich man's son, 

Make it in the world of crime. 

Watch out Machine Gun, 

Don't let her run you round. 

Don't let the woman put you six feet 

In the ground, Machine Gun. 

You'd better watch out Machine Gun Kelly, 

Careful of what you do, now. 

If you keep listening to your old lady, 

Ain't no telling 

What'll happen to you, now, Machine Gun. 

The government boys they came 

For Machine Gun, took the poor boy away. 

Stuck him in a hole in Leavenworth prison 

Where he lived until his dying day.
