Travis Tritt - Outlaws Like Us lyrics

I was born a country singer

I love Charlie Pride

Raised on 'He Stopped Loving Her'

Cut my teeth on 'Mama Tried'

Yes, I love Hank Williams

But I still love rock 'n roll

Hank Jr., me and Waylon

We're all cut from the same mold

And they say country's changing

And we must all adjust

Oh, but I still think there's lots of room

For old outlaws like us

I love to jam with the Skynyrd band

'Cause 'Freebird' chills my bones

And I've talked trash with Johnny Cash

And I've sung with George Jones

And I have played on the Opry stage

Where the country legends stood

Where you don't give lies or alibis

'Cause that they don't do no good

And Lord, I guess, that I've been blessed

Though I have been kicked and cussed

But it's nothing new to moan the blues

For old outlaws like us

And I wear this country banner

And I'm proud to wave the flag

And you can talk all day 'bout the next Billy Ray

But I'll cast my vote for Hag

And when all those screaming metal bands

Have corroded into rust

There'll still be a show on Music Row

For old outlaws like us

Now, I don't have a crystal ball

To tell what lies ahead

But I play my way, though some folks say

Country rock is dead

And you may call me old-fashioned way

You may think I'm insane

But rhythm and blues is in my blood

And pumping through my veins

And I've still got some loyal fans

That I know I can trust

Who would sell their souls for rock 'n roll

For old outlaws like us

And I wear this country banner

And I'm proud to wave the flag

And you can talk all day 'bout the next Billy Ray

But I'll cast my vote for Hag

And when all those dancing metal bands

Have corroded into rust

There'll still be a show on Music Row

For old outlaws like us
