I used to think I was an outlaw
But I ain't that wild
I used to think I was an outlaw
Now I've got a child
So I'll pretend that I'm an outlaw
Every once in a while
Well, my daddy went to prison
He went to jail
He was a preacher's son But my mama waited for him
Their wedding was a shotgun So when I finally arrived here
I knew that it was gonna be fine I used to think I was an outlaw
But I ain't that wild
I used to think I was an outlaw
Now I've got a child So I'll pretend that I'm an outlaw
Every once in a while My family lived in a trailer
But we ain't white trash
We just like country music
Hank Graham and Cash Johnny Cash
When I try to put roots down The road is always calling me back
Well,
I found me a good man He's real good,
he plays it sly
guitar He bought me a wedding ring and He said,
girl,
we're gonna go far
So we drove to the next town To make a brand new start
I used to think I was an outlaw
But I ain't that wild
I used
to think I was an outlaw
Now I've got a child
So I'll pretend that I'm an outlaw Every once in a while
I play my shows on Saturdays Cause Sunday's for the Lord
Praise the Lord And I try to read the good book
But I can't read it more
And I pray he'll have mercy
Cause that's the only way I'm getting through the door
I used to think I was an outlaw
But I ain't that wild
I used to think I was an outlaw
Now I've got a child
So I'll pretend that I'm an outlaw
Every once in a while
So I'll pretend that I'm an outlaw Every once in a while
