one day they robbed a bank
it was their last hooray
the cops appeared too soon
they couldn't get away
and all the loot they had
it made them mighty mad
and so they shot it out
ma baker and her sons
they didn't want to hang
they died with blazing guns
and so the story ends
of one who left no friends
ma ma ma ma - ma baker - she taught her four sons
ma ma ma ma - ma baker - to handle their guns
ma ma ma ma - ma baker - she never could cry
ma ma ma ma - ma baker - but she knew how to die
ma ma ma ma - ma baker - she taught her four sons
ma ma ma ma - ma baker - to handle their guns
ma ma ma ma - ma baker - she never could cry
ma ma ma ma - ma baker - but she knew how to die.
