Charlie Farley – Outlaw (2019) lyrics

[Intro]
It's the real shotgun, and I intend (And I intend, and I intend)
Man, I'm too far gone to come back home
That is if I had a home to come back to
Livin' life on the run

[Verse 1]
Cigarettes on my breath, eyes hidden behind two dollar shades
Drinkin' what is left of that bottle from yesterday
From when I robbed that liquor store and shot a man in a fit of rage
All over some change
Now my hands are grippin' the wheel while I'm starin' off into space
This blank gaze on my face is due to way too many days
Of livin' life in the fast lane but I don't know no other way
So I push that pedal to the metal and embrace my fate

[Pre-Chorus]
Drivin' this Monte Carlo down a long and windin' road (Yeah)
With a pistol in the console not knowin' where I'm gon' go
I've got thoughts in my head of endin' up dead 'cause I've been on the run for way too long
I'm too far gone, so they label me an

[Chorus]
Outlaw, down this long and windin' road
Certified outlaw, not knowin' where I will go
Certified outlaw, do-do-do-do-do
Certified outlaw

[Verse 2]
Well them mile markers are flyin' by, no radio, just tailpipes roarin'
As the day turns into night and I go more into the great unknown
Like will the past ever catch me? I've been expectin' it to show up for so long
That the inner me wouldn't let me live for the ones who stayed to try to put me on
They finally moved on, I guess there's no point in beatin' a dead horse but
They didn't cast their stones, they tried to help, this was my choice
And I'm grindin' the gears while rewindin' the years that replay in my mind
Like a spinnin' wind chime but every time I open my eyes I find I am here (Come on)

[Pre-Chorus]
Drivin' this Monte Carlo down a long and windin' road (Yeah)
With a pistol in the console not knowin' where I'm gon' go
I've got thoughts in my head of endin' up dead 'cause I've been on the run for way too long
I'm too far gone, so they label me an

[Chorus]
Outlaw, down this long and windin' road
Certified outlaw, not knowin' where I will go
Certified outlaw, do-do-do-do-do
Certified outlaw
Put it down one more time for 'em
(Outlaw) Certified outlaw, ohh, certified outlaw
(Outlaw) Certified outlaw, ohh, do-do-do-do-do
Certified outlaw

[Outro]
It's the real shotgun, and I intend (And I intend, and I intend)
Certified outlaw, uhh
It's the real shotgun, and I intend (And I intend)
