Outlaws Like Us — текст песни (Travis Tritt)

(Travis Tritt)

I was born a country singer
I love Charley Pride
Raised on `He Stopped Loving Her`
Cut my teeth on `Mama Tried`
Yes, I love Hank Wiliams
But I still love rock `n roll
Hank Jr, me and Waylon,
We`re all cut from the same mold
And they say country`s changin`
And we must all adjust
But I still think there`s lots of room
For old outlaws like us

I love to jam with the Skynyrd band
`Cause `Freebird` chills my bones
And I`ve talked trash with Johnny Cash
And I`ve sung with George Jones
And I have played on the Opry stage
Where the country legends stood
Where you don`t give lies or alibis
`Cause they don`t do no good
And Lord, I guess, that I`ve been blessed
Though I have been kicked and cussed
But it`s nothing new to moan the blues
For old outlaws like us

And I wear this country banner
And I`m proud to wave the flag
And you can talk all day `bout the next Billy Ray
But I`ll cast my vote for Hag
And when all those screamin` metal bands
Have corroded into rust
There`ll still be a show on Music Row
For old outlaws like us

Now, I don`t have a crystal ball
To tell what lies ahead
But I play my way, though some folks say
Country rock is dead
And you may call me old-fashioned
You may think I`m insane
But rhythm and blues is in my blood
And pumping through my veins
And I`ve still got some loyal fans
That I know I can trust
Who will sell their souls for rock `n roll
And old outlaws like us

Repeat Chorus
