LUCERO
"Young Outlaws"
(Ben Nichols)

I'd been guarding my freedom
Like money in the bank downtown
But since I met you mama
Feeling like I oughta
Plant my feet and settle down

Paw Paw was a sore loser
He always threw his cards on the ground
We were wearing out our welcome
At the Old Cayucos Tavern
Now I am Ohio bound

Tell all, tell all, tell all the young outlaws
I'm hanging up my guns, I'm not taking the fall
Tell all, tell all, tell all the young outlaws
It was one last score, now I'm backing off
Let's go mama
Take me home

Paid the tab at Black Hammock
Got a ticket out of New Orleans
Headed up the Mississippi
As far as it can get me
Do exactly what I please

Now little Joslyn's a fireball
And her sister Jade is coming up gold
I'm drinking Coca-Cola
Up in Cuyahoga
It's keeping me from getting old

Tell all, tell all, tell all the young outlaws
I'm hanging up my guns, I'm not taking the fall
Tell all, tell all, tell all the young outlaws
It was one last score, now I'm backing off
Let's go mama
Take me home

Never saw it coming
Spent so long outrunning
Laws I should've obeyed
But sweet mama
I surrender
Take me home today

Tell all, tell all, tell all the young outlaws
I'm hanging up my guns, I'm not taking the fall
Tell all, tell all, tell all the young outlaws
It was one last score, now I'm backing off
Tell all, tell all, tell all the young outlaws
I'm hanging up my guns, I'm not taking the fall
Tell all, tell all, tell all the young outlaws
It was one last score, now I'm backing off
Let's go mama
Take me home
