Wanted Man

Wanted Man

bullet in my shoulder

blood running my vest

20 in the posse

and they're never going to let me rest

till i became a wanted man i never even owned a gun

but now they hunt me like a mountain cat

and i'm always always always on the run

i killed poor jet brian

in a real bad fight

killed him with my bare hands

for the girl i loved that night

jets' brothers' out to get me

he's coming with a gang

i'd rather shoot it out like that

than let them watch me hang

bullet in my shoulder

blood running down my vest

twenty in the posse

and they're never going to let me rest

till i became a wanted man i never even owned a gun

but now they hunt me like a mountain cat

and i'm always always always on the run

she had spangles on her red dress

she had laughter in her voice

when he tried to lay his hands on her

my heart left me no choice

but was she really worth it

i guess i'll never know

she'll be drinking someone else's rye

when i'm six feet below

bullet in my shoulder

blood running down my vest

twenty in the posse

and they're never going to let me rest

till i became a wanted man i never even owned a gun

but now they hunt me like a mountain cat

and i'm always always always on the run

a wanted man

a wanted man

on the run
