Dust on my boots like a ghost in the wind
They come for the thrill not where I've been
Leather jacket torn but my soul's still whole
They love the outlaw but not the man below
They take the fire leave the spark
I light their nights but not their dark
Whiskey burns sharp like their fleeting stays
Lipstick on my collar but no names they gave
The road is my bed and my shadow my friend
They chase the legend but not the man in the end
Boots hit the dirt and the whiskey spills
The moon cuts shadows from the tennissee hills to the broken glass city of the 4 1 9 they don't want my heart only an outlaw thrill
Girls with fire in their eyes
They know my name
But it's the outlaw they want
Not the man in the frame
They love the smoke
They love the fight
They love the danger in the dead of night
But they don't love me
No
Not my soul
They take the thrill and leave the hole
A tattooed story runs up my arm
They trace the lines
They crave the harm
Leather and steel
I’m the ghost they chase
But I’m just a shadow they can’t embrace
They kiss the chaos
They crave the sin
But they don’t look past the skin I’m in
They love the smoke
They love the fight
They love the danger in the dead of night
But they don't love me
No
Not my soul
They take the thrill and leave the hole
Whiskey rebellion in my veins
They take the heat but dodge the flames
I’m a wanted man in their dreams
Not their hearts
A piece of art they tear apart
They love the chase the smoke in the air
The rebel's glare the devil-may-care
But when the dawn cracks they’re already gone
A hollow echo in my outlaw song
They take the fire leave the spark
I light their nights but not their dark
