Waylon Jennings - Ladies Love Outlaws lyrics

Album: Ladies Love Outlaws <RCA Victor> (1972)

(Lee Clayton)

Bessie was a lovely child from west Tennessee
Leroy was an outlaw wild as a mink
One day she saw him starin´ & it chilled her to the bone
And she knew she had to see that look on a child of her own.

´Cause ladies love outlaws like babies love stray dogs
Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold
And outlaws touch the ladies
Somewhere deep down in their soul.

Linda was a lady blonde & built to last
Benny was a no good guitar picker runnin´ from his past
She heard all of his songs tellin´ nothin´ but bad news
But she made her mind up to try to get him win or lose.

Ladies love outlaws like babies love stray dogs
Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold
And outlaws touch the ladies
Somewhere deep down in their soul.

Jessi like the Cadillacs & diamonds on her hands
Waymore had a reputation as a ladie´s man
Late one night a light of love finally gave a sign
Jessi parked her Cadillac & took her place in line.

´Cause ladies love outlaws like babies love stray dogs
Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold
And outlaws touch the ladies
Somewhere deep down in their soul.

Ladies love outlaws like babies love stray dogs
Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold
And outlaws touch the ladies
Somewhere deep down in their soul...
