Lyrics


Outlaw
Greenberg/Harpeth Rising

He done his time and he earned it, takes no pride in this fact
Steers clear of the old ways now cause he knows he's never goin' back
Blames no one for his troubles, learned too young to take it like a man
Pride has always been his weakness and I know he'd take 'em down again

CHORUS: They call him the Outlaw
They don't like his ride
They watch every move he makes
But they will never let him come inside
They call him the Outlaw, he don't mind

Does not ask to be forgiven, makes no excuses for this life
Always took the road less traveled, makes his confessions to the night
Partial to hard liquor and soft women, and a few have fallen along the way
But none of them will ever tell you that he offered what he would not give away

CHORUS

Forget it, you may never dig it; he comes from a time now far away
Didn't get those badges in some dime store, he earned them in the valley with no name
He's not bound for gold or glory and he worries some about gettin' old
Just runs free like God intended him to be and I know that's what they hate the most

They call him the Outlaw
They don't like his ride
They watch every move he makes
But they will never look him right in the eye
They call him the Outlaw, he don't mind
