I am an outlaw, I was born an outlaw's son The highway is my legacy On the highway I will run In one hand I've a Bible In the other I've got a gun Don't you know me? I'm the man you want Woman, don't try to love me Don't try to understand A life upon the road is the life of an outlaw man First left my woman, it was down in Santa Fe Headed for Oklahoma, I was ridin' night and day All of my friends are strangers They quickly come and go All my love is danger 'Cause I steal hearts and souls Woman, don't try to love me Don't try to understand A life upon the road is the life of an outlaw man ♪ Woman, don't try to love me Don't try to understand A life upon the road is the life of an outlaw ♪ Some men call me Abel Some men call me Cain Some men call me sinner, Lord And some men call me saint Some say there's a Jesus And some men say there ain't When you got no life to lose There's nothin' left to gain Outlaw man Outlaw man Outlaw man Outlaw man
