lyrics

Life of being an evil man has got me on the run.
Wonder if I could be forgave for the things that I have done.
If I quit moving baby I think I will surely die
Or end up back in jail again
For god only knows why.

He was there when I learned how to drive and when I learned to shoot.
He's seen me crush a human skull with the heel of my boot.
He's seen me at my lowest point he's seen me riding high.
The pavement knows me by my name.
We're old friends he and I.

Well baby I can't get away from what I did.
I can't even hear you talk over voices in my head.
Now I hope one day that I can find that little girl I left behind
But the bounty on me says
alive or dead.

I spent some time in Tennessee it's not where I wanna stay.
Yeah California's nice and warm but I'll avoid LA.
I just thought I'd tell my story
Before I leave you on the side of
A Texas red dirt road.

I wish that you could ride. I really miss a gentle touch.
But I've been rambling on and on. I think I've said too much.
You see this crank has got me saying things that ought not to be said.
So I can let you walk on home
or leave you in a culvert dead.

But baby I can't get away from what I did.
I can't even hear you talking over voices in my head.
Now I hope one day that I can find that little girl I left behind
But the bounty on me says
alive or dead.

But baby I can't get away from what I did.
I can't even hear you talking over voices in my head.
Now I hope one day that I can find that little girl I left behind
But the bounty on me says
alive or dead.

The bounty on me says
alive or dead.
