OUTLAW

My brother was a banker, 3 kids and a wife
Father was a farmer lord who worked all day and night
Mother rang the dinner bell late Sunday afternoon
And all 3 died beside my bride another desert moon

And I said oh no, no, no,
I can’t go back
And I said oh no, no, no,
Now I can’t go back

10 men rode up to the farm and they shot them 1 by 1
They took from me my family 4 bullets from a gun
I met the at the border lord, hop them on the run
I shot 9 men and I didn’t no that I shot the sherrif’s son

And I said oh no, no, no,
I can’t go back
And I said oh no, no, no,
Now I can’t go back

Pass the rocky mountain, cross the barren land
Rode into a ghost town 6 gun in my hand
Sheriff’s got my number lord his posses closing in
Late to meet the gallows and my time is running thin

And I said oh no, no, no,
I can’t go back
And I said oh no, no, no,
Now I can’t go back

Stand under a red sky sheriffs horse rides in
Sstands 10 paces from my face and my race is at and end
Staring his stare back at me and our fates it seems are bound
1 gun shot echoes through the land but 2 men hit the ground

And I said oh no, no, no,
I can’t go back
And I said oh no, no, no,
Now I can’t go back
