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

Well, don' you know me

I'm the man who won

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



And all my love's in 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

oo....



Woman, don't try to love me

Don't try to understand

A life upon the road is the life of an outlaw man



Some me call me Abel,

Some men call me Cain,

Some men call me sinner, Lord

Some men call me saint



Some say there's a Jesus

Some men say there ain't

When you got no life to lose

Then there's nothin' left to gain

Outlaw man

Outlaw man
