Jessi was a lovely child from West Tennessee

Leroy was an outlaw hard as me

One night she saw him starring & it chilled her to the bone She knew she had to see that look on a child of her own



chorus....

Cause ladies love outlaws like babies like stray dogs

Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold

And outlaws touch ladies somewhere deep down in thier souls

Jessie liked cadillacs and diamonds on her hands

Leroy had a reputation as a woman's man

Then one night her light of love finally gave a sign

Jessie parked her cadillac and got herself in line



chorus....



chorus....



Yeah ladies love outlaws like babies love a bunch of stray dogs

Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold

And outlaws touch ladies anywhere they want.
