Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Spur marks fading on the red dirt road

Smoke from the canyon still on my coat

Name on a wanted sign flaps in the dawn

Every mile I ride

One more line gone

[Chorus]

I’m the outlaw

Hat pulled low

Dust in my teeth

Nowhere to go

Got a past like a shadow that won’t let me be

Every ridge

Every river keeps talkin’ to me

Yeah

The law’s ridin’ hard

But it’s harder to run

From the man I was

And what I’ve done

I’m the outlaw

The outlaw on the run

[Verse 2]

Pocket full of letters that I never did send

Her tear-stained ink sayin’ “come home again”

But a stolen horse and a dead man’s gold

Turn a good boy’s heart to iron and cold

[Chorus]

I’m the outlaw

Hat pulled low

Dust in my teeth

Nowhere to go

Got a past like a shadow that won’t let me be

Every ridge

Every river keeps talkin’ to me

Yeah

The law’s ridin’ hard

But it’s harder to run

From the man I was

And what I’ve done

I’m the outlaw

The outlaw on the run

[Bridge]

[Band drops softer

Close vocal]

If I crossed that line back to our front gate (oh)

Would her porch light burn or would it turn away

So I ride that line between wrong and right

Prayin’ one more sunrise buys me one more night

[Chorus]

I’m the outlaw

Hat pulled low

Dust in my teeth

Nowhere to go

Got a past like a shadow that won’t let me be

Every ridge

Every river keeps talkin’ to me

Yeah

The law’s ridin’ hard

But it’s harder to run

From the man I was

And what I’ve done

I’m the outlaw

Yeah

I’m the outlaw on the run
