I headed to the east cause life was goin south
I packed up all my bags and leaving aint nothin in that town
Something’s calling me in that purple sky
And as the wheels are rollin may the spirit never die

Darling don’t wait up
'Cause I may not come home
My daddy say that if I take this path I’m on my own
If they come for me don’t tell them where I’ve gone
I’ll be outta sight before too long

'Cause I’m an outlaw
One you can’t defy
Hey I’m an outlaw
Only dusty roads tonight

This water on my feet will wash away my sins
And if I die tonight then notify my next kin? Mhm
What it’l be will be and what it is it is
I’m the one who made this bed that I’ll be layin in

Darling don’t wait up
'Cause I may not come home
My daddy say that if I take this path I’m on my own
If they come for me don’t tell them where I’ve gone
I’ll be outta sight before too long

'Cause I’m an outlaw
One you can’t defy
Hey I’m an outlaw
Only dusty roads tonight

Mm mm mm mm mm mm oh
Mm mm mm mm mm mm oh
Mm mm mm mm mm mm oh

'Cause I’m an outlaw
One you can’t defy
Hey I’m an outlaw
Only dusty roads tonight

Mm mm mm mm mm mm oh
Mm mm mm mm mm mm oh
Mm mm mm mm mm mm oh
