 This is the story of Ma Baker,
  ( Dm - C - Am - Dm )
 the meanest cat from ol' Chicago town.
 She was the meanest  cat,  in old Chicago  town,
 she was the meanest cat,  she really mowed  them down.
 She had no heart  at all,  no no no heart  at all.
 She was the meanest  cat,  oh she was really tough,
 she left her husband flat,  he wasn't tough  enough.
 She took her boys  along,  'cos they were mean  and strong.
 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!
 They left a trail  of crime  across the U.S.A.
 And when one boy was killed,  she really made  them pay.
 She had no heart  at all,  no no no heart  at all.
 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!
 She met a man  she liked,  she thought she'd stay  with him,
 one day he fought with them,  they did away  with him.
 She didn't care  at all,  just didn't care  at all.

 Don't  anybody  move! The money  or  your  lives!
 One day they robbed  a bank,  it was their last  foray,
 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.

( [Dm] - [C] - [Am] – [Dm] )
This is the story of Ma Baker,
         ( Dm - C - Am - Dm )
the meanest cat from ol' Chicago town.

She was the m[Dm]eanest c[C]at, in old Chic[Am]ago t[Dm]own,
she was the meanest c[C]at, she really m[Am]owed them d[Dm]own.
She had no h[C]eart at [Dm]all, no no no h[C]eart at [Dm]all.

She was the m[Dm]eanest c[C]at, oh she was r[Am]eally [Dm]tough,
she left her husband fl[C]at, he wasn't t[Am]ough en[Dm]ough.
She took her b[C]oys al[Dm]ong, 'cos they were m[C]ean and st[Dm]rong.

Ma Ma Ma M[Dm]a - Ma B[C]aker - she t[Am]aught her four s[Dm]ons,
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma B[C]aker - to h[Am]andle their g[Dm]uns.
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma B[C]aker - she n[Am]ever could c[Dm]ry,
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma B[C]aker - but she k[Am]new how to d[A]ie!

They left a tr[Dm]ail of cr[C]ime across the [Am]U.S.[Dm]A.
And when one boy was k[C]illed, she really m[Am]ade them p[Dm]ay.
She had no h[C]eart at [Dm]all, no no no h[C]eart at [Dm]all.

Ma Ma Ma M[Dm]a - Ma B[C]aker - she t[Am]aught her four s[Dm]ons,
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma B[C]aker - to h[Am]andle their g[Dm]uns.
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma B[C]aker - she n[Am]ever could c[Dm]ry,
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma B[C]aker - but she k[Am]new how to d[A]ie!

She met a m[Dm]an she l[C]iked, she thought she'd s[Am]tay with h[Dm]im,
one day he fought with th[C]em, they did a[Am]way with h[Dm]im.
She didn't c[C]are at [Dm]all, just didn't c[C]are at [Dm]all.

" Here is a special bulletin:

  Ma Baker is the FBI's most wanted woman.

  please contact the nearest police station..."

[Dm] Don'[C]t an[Am]ybody[Dm] move! The mo[Dm]ney o[C]r yo[Am]ur li[Dm]ves!

One day they r[Dm]obbed a b[C]ank, it was their l[Am]ast for[Dm]ay,
the cops appeared too s[C]oon, they couldn't g[Am]et aw[Dm]ay.
And all the l[C]oot they h[Dm]ad, it made them m[C]ighty m[Dm]ad.

And so they sh[Dm]ot it [C]out, Ma Baker [Am]and her s[Dm]ons.
They didn't want to h[C]ang, they died with bl[Am]azing g[Dm]uns.
and so the st[C]ory [Dm]ends, of one who l[C]eft no fr[Dm]iends.

Ma Ma Ma M[Dm]a - Ma B[C]aker - she t[Am]aught her four s[Dm]ons,
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma B[C]aker - to h[Am]andle their g[Dm]uns.
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma B[C]aker - she n[Am]ever could c[Dm]ry,
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma B[C]aker - but she k[Am]new how to d[A]ie.

Ma Ma Ma [Dm]Ma - Ma [C]Baker - she [Am]taught her four [Dm]sons,
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma B[C]aker - to h[Am]andle their g[Dm]uns.
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma B[C]aker - she n[Am]ever could c[Dm]ry,
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma B[C]aker - but she k[Am]new how to d[A]ie
