"The Outlaw Side Of Me" lyrics - CHRIS JANSON
I got a ticket in Cook County from a small town county mountie
Goin' ninety in a slow lane on my way to Tennesee
And no amount of talkin' could keep me out of that ticket
Yeah, that's the outlaw side of me
(That's the outlaw side of me)
I had a run in with the warden
Yeah, he'd been waitin' for me
'Cross a fence I knew I wasn't supposed to be
Hell, I was busted just like that 'cause that turkey on my back
Put a bullseye on the outlaw side of me
[Chorus:]
Yeah, I'm a lover not a fighter
No, I don't go lookin' for trouble
Aw, but sometimes that trouble just finds me (Just finds me)
Yeah, I could probably help it
But I don't really wanna
That's the outlaw side of me
Aw, yes it is
(That's the outlaw)
(That's the outlaw side of me)
Well, I knew it when I saw her
That I just had to have her
Oh, but she was wearin' someone else's ring
She knew all my good intentions were bad right from the get go
Yeah, that's the outlaw side of me
Aw, yes it is
[Chorus:]
I'm a lover not a fighter
No, I don't go lookin' for trouble
Aw, but sometimes that trouble just finds me (Just finds me)
Yeah, I could probably help it
But I don't really wanna
Yeah, that's the outlaw side of me
(That's the outlaw)
(That's the outlaw side of me)
[Instrumental break]
I'm rough around the edges, off the cuff and off the rails
But I don't blame nobody, just blame me (Just blame me)
I'm honest and I'm guilty
Sorry I ain't sorry
Yeah, that's the outlaw side of me
(That's the outlaw side of me)
[Chorus:]
'Cause I'm a lover not a fighter
No I don't go lookin' for trouble
Aw, but sometimes that trouble just finds me (Just finds me)
Yeah, I could probably help it
But I don't really wanna
Yeah, that's the outlaw side of me
Yes, it is
[Outro:]
Yeah, that's the outlaw side of me
