Sympathy For the Outlaws

you know me
always sympathizing
with the outlaws
headed Mexico way
they did bad
for a good reason
I don't want them to hang
but songs like "Hey, Joe"
and "Poncho and Lefty"
were written for suckers like me
my heart bleeds
too easily
and I can't stay home
'cause I don't have a home
I'm an outlaw
in my own
quiet way.
