The law's on your side, an' not on mine

Seems I'm runnin' almost, all the time

I never look back, if someone follows close

I just pretend that my shadow's a ghost



I'm the outlaw...

Where will I run to next

Texas outlaw...

Where will I run to next



The Secret Service an' the C.I.A.

Everybody knows me by my firs' name

I pack my gun, in a totin' sack

Everybody's always on my back



I'm the outlaw...

Where will I run to next

Texas outlaw...

Where will I run to next



My body's achin' my heart is breakin' in two....



I'm tired of runnin' an' I wanna settle down

It seems I'm wanted in every town

From Dallas Texas on to San Antonio

The legend of my life goes on



Way down in Austin there's a girl who stole my heart

Her love is made of solid gold...

I gotta go

I gotta go

I' got to go

I gotta go

I gotta (go....)



City judge found me guilty of theft

He told me then that I was under arrest

A bail was paid, an' I skipped outta town

They're out there right now tryin' ta gun me down



I'm the outlaw...

Where will I run to next

Texas outlaw...

Where will I run to next



I'm the outlaw...

Where will I run to next

Texas outlaw...

Where will I run to next



I'm the outlaw...

Where will I run to next
