Outlaw lyrics

You've been riding this horse a long time
Why can't you find what you've been looking for?
Always greener on the other side
Always believin' there must be something more
Never stay very long anywhere
As the next girl you leave gets smaller
In you rear-view mirror
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw running from love
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw running from love
If you tear her world apart
You have no regrets
If there's a key to your heart
No one's found it yet
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw running from love
Your reputation's gettin' out of control
I can believe, she believes one word you said
Before I let you take my girlfriend home
I've got to warn her about the price on your head
It must feel so alone out there
Always running away from someone
But you get nowhere
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw running from love
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw running from love
If you tear her world apart
You have no regrets
If there's a key to your heart
No one's found it yet
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw running from love
I'm from the Lone Star State
I'm ready to bring you in
Oh
I'm gonna seal your fate, make you pay for all of your sins
Oh, oh, oh
You've been riding this horse a long time
I've had my eye on you all night
I'm gonna find a way to make you mine
I know, even though
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw running from love
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw running from love
If you tear her world apart
You have no regrets
If there's a key to your heart
No one's found it yet
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw running from love
Stop running
