Living Outside The Law

Woke up this mornin' badge at my window
Boots in the hall
They keep on knockin'
'Cause I'm livin' outside the law

My mama cried when I left home that day
Said Son don't you go throw your life away
But the city lights called me they held their sway
Now I'm livin' on the edge come what may
Got a fast car a faster hand and a quicker play

Oh bad news blues gonna get me down
Always on the run from this one-horse town
Bad news blues gonna break my heart
Living outside always falling apart
Bad news blues yeah they sing my song
Never belonged never felt strong

Empty pockets and a hungry gut
Every door closed every single shut
Got a past that chases a future unclear
Living on a prayer living in fear
One wrong move and it's all undone
Nowhere to hide nowhere to run

I live outside the law babe
Past the edge of that painted line
Yeah I live outside the law babe
Playin' cards with borrowed time
If the blues come knockin' honey
Tell 'em that outlaw’s doin' fine
