Outlaw running from the law but he's

Got nowhere to run to

Big law he broke it and ran faster

Than the lightning bolt

Chasing down the golden sun, running away

From the blue

He ran with no direction in mind, just

Running like a crazy colt



And he's gonna run let the four winds slap his face

He's gonna fly, let the sky be his guide

He's gonna lie beneath a blanket of stars

He's gonna run, wild as the western wind



Bad lands are sheltering him, maybe Dakota's

His home

Red man's become his friend, when no one else

Would have him

There's an Indian woman who keeps him from

Being alone

She stands tall by his side, but the law's

Got him out on a limb
