Outlaw in Me
Mama says that I drink too much
Daddy don't like the cursin' when I sing
Got a good girl missin' me back home
Yeah, I'm stretched pretty thin today
So, I'll keep treadin' water like I'm breathing through a straw
You still think I'm an outlaw
Who can tell me what's an outlaw?
Well, I'm not for certain, but I can tell you what it ain't, son
It ain't hats, tats, a sound, or in between
It's about not being wanted where you want to be
So, I'll keep treadin' water like I'm breathing through a straw
You still think I'm an outlaw
Well, I know I'm no different, I'm just a troubadour looking for
Oh, a rhyme or a reason that I think is worth rhyming for
Say, I'm too Idaho for Texas
And I'm too Texas for Tennessee
So, I'll do my own thing
And there's that outlaw in me
Mirror, mirror, what do you see?
Is that the boy that I used to be?
Is it the man of yesterday?
But his soul went and withered away
So, I'll keep treadin' water like I'm breathing through a straw
You still think I'm an outlaw?
Well, I know I'm no different, I'm just a troubadour looking for
Oh, a rhyme or a reason that I think is worth rhyming for
Say, I'm too Idaho for Texas
And I'm too Texas for Tennessee
So, I'll do my own thing
And there's that outlaw in me
Well, I know I'm no different, I'm just a troubadour looking for
Oh, a rhyme or a reason that I think is worth rhyming for
But I'm too Idaho for Texas
And I'm too Texas for Tennessee
So, I'll do my own thing
And there's that outlaw in me
Daddy don't like the cursin' when I sing
Got a good girl missin' me back home
Yeah, I'm stretched pretty thin today
So, I'll keep treadin' water like I'm breathing through a straw
You still think I'm an outlaw
Who can tell me what's an outlaw?
Well, I'm not for certain, but I can tell you what it ain't, son
It ain't hats, tats, a sound, or in between
It's about not being wanted where you want to be
So, I'll keep treadin' water like I'm breathing through a straw
You still think I'm an outlaw
Well, I know I'm no different, I'm just a troubadour looking for
Oh, a rhyme or a reason that I think is worth rhyming for
Say, I'm too Idaho for Texas
And I'm too Texas for Tennessee
So, I'll do my own thing

And I'm too Texas for Tennessee
So, I'll do my own thing
And there's that outlaw in me
