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
