"Pretty Boy Floyd"

In the lines "And along come a deputy sheriff in a manner rather rude / Using vulgar words of language; his wife, she overheard" in "Pretty Boy Floyd," there's a slant rhyme between "rude" and "overheard," and this indicates the indirect manner in which Pretty Boy Floyd's wife heard the sheriff.
