I'm a midnight rider in the moonlight
A silent criminal addicted to the high life
The man of the hour robbed the world of its power
I'm livin' in the shadows, hidden from the gallows
I've been on the run too long
Like an outlaw
Wind at my back
A young gun, desperado
Dead or alive
A wanted man, no fear in these bones
Runnin' for my life
Swift and fast like
Freedom's within sight
So bring your guns, bring your knives
You won't catch me doin' time
For any crime of mine
I walk the line (walk, walk)
Crooked to the core
I'm the villain you adore
Ruthless, call me reckless
I'm a sickness, I'm infectious, oh
I've been on the run too long
Like an outlaw
Wind at my back
A young gun, desperado
Dead or alive
A wanted man, no fear in these bones
Runnin' for my life
Swift and fast like
Freedom's within sight
I've taken control
From California to the New York islands
But still, I'm just a man living for me, for me, yeah
I've been on the run too long
Like an outlaw
Wind at my back
A young gun, desperado
Dead or alive
A wanted man, no fear in these bones
Runnin' for my life
Swift and fast like
Freedom's within sight
Too long
Like an outlaw
I've been on the run too long
