Johnathan East - Wanted Man songtekst

Je score:

Yeah, you know it really made me feel like a man

To hold a 38 special in the palm of my hand

Flying down the back roads in an ole Trans Am

It brought the bad side out of me

I was ready for the world and fresh out of high school

I just turned 18, I was nobody's fool

And with my shades pulled down, son, I was looking so 

cool

Couldn't have been more free

Well, in Jackson, Mississippi I robbed a liquor store

Told the man behind the counter, ?Lay down on the 

floor?

That little stunt was my first offense

I've been running like a stray dog every day since.



(Chorus)

I'm an outlaw, I'm a rebel

I'm as sweet as an angel, and mean as the devil

I wish I could go back and change all the things that 

I've done

I'm a loner, I'm a maverick

I'm a young desperado with a nasty habit

Of making my living on the road with a smoking gun

See, I'm a wanted man, running out of places to run.



Now, I had to go out and change my name

I ditched that car for a red mustang

And I realized the world would never look the same

As I pulled out on the road


I spent all my money and I needed some more

Down went a few more convenience stores

And as I shot the lock off the register drawer

I wondered how far I'd go

I kept on riding, out into the night

I kept telling myself everything's all right

Just keep on rolling ?til I find a little town

A place to hide out while this all cools down.



(Repeat Chorus)



I was laying low in a south Texas town

Little motel room thought I couldn't be found

And I said a prayer as the rain came down

And the wind began to blow

I was fast asleep in the middle of the night

When the cops came by, and they turned on their lights

When they broke down the door, and they read me my 

rights

They said, ?Come on boy, let's go?

Well, they put me in cuffs and they hauled me off to 

jail

They took everything I had and threw me in some cell

I guess there's just a limit on how far you can go

But to the day I die everyone's gonna know.



(Repeat Chorus)



Well, I'm a wanted man, running out of places to run.
