Lyrics
I am a highway, a highway robber
The deserts my home, Lord knows I
Love her
I’m a running, I’m a gunning
Through this lawless state
Some renegades came to me
And they offered me gold
We’re gonna call out that lawman
Gonna shoot him down cold
The memory is a clear of a proud
Man drawing near
And as he faced the guns
I know he did not run
In this lawless state
In this lawless state
Desert sun ever on the run
Desert sun forever on the run
No I ain’t no killer
But I’m labeled as such
For during that shootout my gun
Was untouched
I could not shoot him cold
For no amount of gold
And so I stood beside a man who
Bravely died
In this lawless state
In this lawless state
Yippy aye eh…hey
Yippy aye oh…ho
Yippy aye eh…hey
Yippy aye oh
Now I ain’t no killer
But I’m labeled as such
For during that shootout my gun was
Untouched
I could not shoot him cold
For any amount of gold
For so I stood beside a man who
Bravely died
In this lawless state
In this lawless state
Yippy aye eh…hey
Yippy aye oh…ho
Yippy aye eh…hey
Yippy aye oh
In this lawless state
In this lawless state
In this lawless state
On this loveless day
On this loveless day
On this loveless day
On this loveless day
