Outlaw Music

(albüm: Quinella - 1981)

I woke up this morning, lost and all alone
Feeling like a million miles from home
I never thought I'd miss you but every day I do
I know I'm just a stranger now to you
I don't wanna be an outlaw anymore
Standing like a stranger at your door

I was young and I grew restless, ran away to Texas
Life was much too tame in Tennessee
And that outlaw music sounded good to me, sounded good to me
Oh, darling, darlin, darling, I think I've had a change of heart

Making no excuses, I never should have left
I had to find some things out for myself
Rhinestones lose their glitter, cowboys let you down
And Luckenbach is just another town
I don't wanna be an outlaw anymore, no, no
I'm standing like stranger at your door, let me in

I was young and I grew restless, ran away to Texas
Life was much too tame in Tennessee for me
And that outlaw music sounded like ecstasy
(Sounded good, sounded good) it sounded good to me (sounded good to me)
(Sounded good) darling darling (sounded good) darling (sounded good to me)

Oh darling, darling
I don't wanna be an outlaw anymore
I'm standing like a beggar at your door
I was young and I grew restless, found myself in Texas
Life was much too tame in Tennessee
And that outlaw music sounded good to me
(Sounded good, sounded good, sounded good to me)
(Sounded good, sounded good, sounded good to me)
