Southpaw

I should've been a cowboy

Livin' in the black hills

Livin' on the outside of the law

Yeah, crazier than wild Bill

Ridin' my quarter horse

Kickin' in saloon doors

Drinkin' double shots of whiskey

Yeah

Wearing my single action piece

For all the honest world to see

I should've been an outlaw

Ready for a quick draw

Everybody call me the gun slingin' Southpaw

Ain't no time for runnin'

'Cause you never saw me comin'

I could be dangerous, I could be famous

Have my name, babe, in all of the papers

Sayin' I'm wanted

By the law and every woman

Yeah, they'd call me the Southpaw, oh

I'd be stealin' me some kisses

From every little bar maid

Robbin' every westbound rail

Out on bail, say to hell with the James Gang

Livin' underneath the stars

Never give away my heart

Just ride away smilin', aye

Well they'd never take this boy alive

'Cause don't you know that legends never die, hey

I should've been an outlaw

Ready for a quick draw

Everybody call me the gun slingin' Southpaw

Ain't no time for runnin'

'Cause you never saw me comin'

I could be dangerous, I could be famous

Have my name, babe, in all of the papers

Sayin' I'm wanted

By the law and every woman

Yeah, they'd call me the Southpaw

They'd call me the Southpaw

Well they'd never take this boy alive

'Cause don't ya know that legends never die

I should've been an outlaw

Ready for a quick draw

Everybody call me the gun slingin' Southpaw

Ain't no time for runnin'

'Cause you never saw me comin'

I could be dangerous, I could be famous

Have my name, babe, in all the papers

Sayin' I'm wanted

By the law and every woman

Yeah, they'd call me the Southpaw

They'd call me the Southpaw

I could be dangerous, I could be famous

Have my name, babe, in all the papers, yeah
