That Ol' Outlaw Song

That Old Outlaw Song

Johnny Cash took me to prison

Haggard sang me back home

Bocephus said that a country boy

Can make it on his own

Waylon said Watch out Hoss

cause it'll sure get out of hand

Willie's smoking up the bus

Out on the road again... playing that

Chorus: Outlaw song

It's been going on

Long Before ... I ever came along

That ol' outlaw song

It'll be playing strong

When I'm 6 foot deep in the ground

Dead and gone

But before I die let me add a line of my own

To that ol' outlaw song

You can take this job and shove it

If you're on my fighting side

Everybody knows if you're big star bound

It's a long hard ride

Saturday night special

Sunday morning coming down

There's a devil loose in Georgia

Midnight rider's in the guitar town

Bridge: There's songs about love and living

Songs about loving women

But the only one that really turns me on

Is that ol' outlaw song
