Frank Wildhorn - This World Will Remember Us Lyrics
CLYDE:
Well who would have thought
That a waitress from Rowina
Would have had the balls to bust me out
With my old forty-five.
And who would have thought
That a farm boy from Tolico
Could outsmart the smartest lawman
And walk out of here alive.
My name is gonna make the history books
Too bad I wont be here.
I may have started out with small-time crooks
In a year or two I'll be as known as Chicago's Al Capone.
BONNIE (Spoken):
Bye baby.
CLYDE (Spoken):
See you soon, sugar.
CLYDE:
Thanks to you Bonnie babe I can make plans again
I got lots of reasons to keep livin'.
Its true that love can set you free
And this world will remember me.
BONNIE:
You said you'd go straight
Clyde, I wanna be in movies
I can't name one movie star who's doing robberies on the side.
I know in my heart babe, that Hollywood is calling
How can I be in the spotlight if we always have to hide.
CLYDE:
We'll need some dough to get to Hollywood
One to two jobs should do.
BONNIE:
But after that we will be done for good.
CLYDE:
Babe when Hollywood gets hold of you
They'll be sayin' Clara who?
No need to rush everybody gets our autographs.
"Hell of a ride!" will be the words on our epitaphs.
BOTH:
Two living legends that's what we will be
And that's ok with me.
Every place that we go
Folks will turn their heads
They'll be hollerin' from Dodge to Denver.
We are the pair that they'll discuss
Yes this world will remember us.
We are making dang sure that we are leave our mark
You don't leave your mark by diggin' ditches.
No wonder we're who they'll discuss
Yes this world will remember us.
