Album:

Ladies Love Outlaws

Bessie was a lovely child from west Tennessee
 Leroy was an outlaw wild as a mink
 One day she saw him starin' and it chilled her to the bone
 And she knew she had to see that look on a child of her own.


 'Cause ladies love outlaws like babies love stray dogs
 Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold
 And outlaws touch the ladies
 Somewhere deep down in their soul.


 Linda was a lady blonde and built to last
 Benny was a no good guitar picker runnin' from his past
 She heard all of his songs tellin' nothin' but bad news
 But she made her mind up to try to get him win or lose.


 Ladies love outlaws like babies love stray dogs
 Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold
 And outlaws touch the ladies
 Somewhere deep down in their soul.


 Jessi like the Cadillacs and diamonds on her hands
 Waymore had a reputation as a ladie's man
 Late one night a light of love finally gave a sign
 Jessi parked her Cadillac and took her place in line.


 'Cause ladies love outlaws like babies love stray dogs
 Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold
 And outlaws touch the ladies
 Somewhere deep down in their soul.


 Ladies love outlaws like babies love stray dogs
 Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold
 And outlaws touch the ladies
 Somewhere deep down in their soul...
