Quote context

[...]

- You've heard the story of Jesse James of how he lived and died. If you're still in need of something to read, here's the story of Bonnie and Clyde.

- You think if I sent that into the newspapers, they'd print it? I'm gonna do it.

- Now Bonnie and Clyde are the Barrow Gang, I'm sure you all have read how they rob and steal and those who squeal are usually found dying or dead.

- They call them cold-hearted killers, they say they are heartless and mean.

- But I say this with pride that I once knew Clyde when he was honest and upright and clean.

- But the laws fooled around, kept taking him down, and locking him up in a cell.

- Till he said to me, I'll never be free, so I'll meet a few of them in hell.

- If a policeman is killed in Dallas and they have no clue to guide, if they can't find a fiend, they just wipe their slate clean, and hang it on Bonnie and Clyde.

- If they try to act like citizens, and rent them a nice little flat about the third night they're invited to fight by a sub-gun's rat-a-tat-tat.

- Someday they'll go down together, they'll bury them side by side. To few it'll be grief, to the law, a relief, but it's death for Bonnie and Clyde.

- You know what you done there? You told my story. You told my whole story right there. Right there.
