I'm an outlaw, where do I start?
All these cowgirls stay breaking my heart
I'm an outlaw, I've bout played my hand
Running from the law, I'm a dangerous man
In the saloon, drowning in whiskey
On a barstool, that's when it hit me
I need a new life, I need a new hobby
That doesn't involve shooting or robbing
Robbing banks, out of control
Make my escape on my bronco
Got a cowboy's broken soul
If I could, I would restart
Relive my life (The legal part)
I got an outlaw's broken heart (Outlaw's broken heart)
I'm an outlaw, and I don't wanna change
I'm a gunman in the Giddy Up gang
It was high noon when I first saw her
She said, "Hey boy, put down that revolver"
Said, "You're an outlaw, and I need you to change
If you want me, you gotta stop robbing trains"
I said, "I can't girl, but I need you to stay"
Then I watched her saddle up and ride away
Robbing banks out of control
Make my escape on my bronco
Got a cowboy's broken soul
If I could I would restart
Relive my life (The legal part)
I got an outlaw's broken heart (Outlaw's broken heart)
I was thinking about what she told me
Then I looked down at the gun I was holding
I thought, "Maybe this life isn't for me"
So then I found her, and I told her my story
I was an outlaw, but I changed my life
For the woman that became my wife
Now I'm happy every darn tooting day
Got my girl here, and we're riding away
