Wanted man in California,

Wanted man in Buffalo

Wanted man in Kansas City,

Wanted man in Ohio



Wanted man in Mississippi,

Wanted man in ol' Cheyenne



Wherever you might look tonight you might see this wanted man



I might be in Colorado,

Or Georgia by the sea

Working for some man who may not know at all who I might be



If you ever see me coming and if you know who I am

Don't you breathe it to nobody 'cause you know I'm on the lamb



Wanted man by Lucy Watson,

Wanted man by Jeannie Brown

Wanted man by Nellie Johnson,

Wanted man in this next town



I've had all that I wanted of a lot of things I've had

And a lot more than I needed of some things that turned out bad



I got sidetracked in El Paso,

Stopped to get myself a map

Went the wrong way in Pleura with Juanita on my back



Went to sleep in Shreveport,

Woke up in Abilene

Wonderin' why I'm wanted at some town half way in between



Wanted man in Albuquerque,

Wanted man in Syracuse

Wanted man in Tallahassee,

Wanted man in Baton Rouge



There's somebody set to grab me

Anywhere that I might be

And wherever you might look tonight

You might get a glimpse of me



Wanted man in California,

Wanted man in Buffalo

Wanted man in Kansas City,

Wanted man in Ohio



Wanted man in Mississippi,

Wanted man in ol' Cheyenne



Wherever you might look tonight you might see this wanted man
