We were ridin though the flatlands
Am C Cb Am G
We were searching for two prisners who just broke jail

Tall one and a lean one

Rode a chestnut stallion

And the worrd was from the main man

He was mean as hell

An outlaw is a man who never undrstands
Am
A word called danger
Dm
He learns to shoot and ride as a child
Am
And never trust a stranger
C E Am
And hes always called a better man
We chased him to the border
all the way to El Paso
The ride was long,the was hard
But the sheriff said We cant let him go
He said Let me tell you somethin I been trackin for a long time
They never trust a stranger and they take care of thier own
Chourus
Todays man is an outlaw
On that long road to freedom
You work him hard you take his pride
And then you try to cheat him
Then one day you figure out its a long long story
An outlaw is a man that takes care of his own
