Lyrics Waylon Jennings

Waylon Jennings

Don't You Think This Outlaw Bit's Done Got Out of Hand

I'm for the law and order the way it should be

This song's about the night they spent protecting you from me

Someone called us outlaws in some old magazine

And New York sent a posse down like I ain't ever seen

Don't you think this outlaw bit's done got out of hand

What started out to be a joke the law don't understand

Was it singing through my nose that got me busted by the man

Maybe this here outlaw bit's done got out of hand out of hand

We were wrapped up in our music that's why we never saw

The car pulls up the boys get out and the room fills up with law

They came boundin' through the backdoor in the middle of a song

They got me for possession for something that was gone long gone

Don't you think this outlaw...

Don't you think this outlaw bit's done got out of hand
