1
Driving across the Illinois plain
2
Hard times in '33
3
John's got a bottle and he's feeling no pain
4
Just the usual low down misery
5
Hey John don't you think it's a crying shame
6
A man lose a farm and he ain't to blame
7
"They're suckers," says John Dillinger
8
It's another bleak November day
9
Can't decide to rain or snow
10
The money's in the bags and they're getting away
11
Heading north to Chicago
12
Big gray buildings, little gray men
13
Have a little fun then we'll do it again
14
"All right," says John Dillinger
15
Luther's bleeding from a hole in his side
16
I don't believe he'll make it through
17
Ruby cradles his head and she starts to cry
18
Oh God, what can I do?
19
I've always been a gangster's girl
20
Don't die and leave me alone in the world
21
"Shut up," says John Dillinger
22
Across his lap a sub-machine
23
Under his arm a .38
24
He's feeling alive, he's feeling mean
25
His yellow eyes are filled with hate
26
The papers say he's a Robin Hood
27
Mistreated and misunderstood
28
"Fuck'em," says John Dillinger
29
"All right," says John Dillinger
