Death be my mistress, guns be my wife Breath is my witness and roads are my life Just give my future`s clean as a knife Far on the way from L.A.
The sun heats the saddle, sand in my hair Looking for water and there`s sweat everywhere Know that I`m nearer I smell damp air I ain`t tasted coffee for days
When the leaves are down I`ll be southward bound Hunters hunt the outsider. When the wind grows cold, when the sun grows old, Nothing holds the outsider
Just killed a man in a town called Nightfall Damned if I can`t remember it all My hand it was shaking but his talk it was tall I paid for the funeral crew And it seems like I never reach Mexico They`re heading me off every place that I go I`m sick of the fact that I`ve got to lay low What else can an outsider do
I know they`re near to me, I don`t have to see Just let me be the outsider They ain`t far behind, they`re always on my mind They won`t find the outsider The outsider
When the leaves are down I`ll be southward bound Hunter`s haunt the outsider. When the wind grows cold, when the sun grows old, Nothing holds the outsider The outsider. The outsider.
