'Round here they call me Bandit
I chose a life of sin
Killed a man in Tulsa
Blue lights brought me in
When the judge asked me
Why I did him in
Looked him in the eyes
And this is what I said
I steal, cheat, and lie
Do what I can to survive
I'm an awful, no good thief of the night
I'll take it to the grave
On a freight train to hell
I'll be running from the devil boys
And dead men tell no tales
They sentenced me to death
Put me in stripes
Threw me in a cell
Lights out after five
I never would've killed that man
If he wouldn't have pulled the knife
He never would've tried
If it weren't for loaded dice
I steal, cheat, and lie
Do what I can to survive
I'm an awful, no good thief of the night
I'll take it to the grave
On a freight train to hell
I'll be running from the devil boys
And dead men tell no tales
Three months away from judgement day
I dug myself a grave
Special issued prison spoon
I found the light of day
And when they couldn't find me
The warden called it in
I was on a train to Canada
And that's how the story ends
I steal, cheat, and lie
Do what I can to survive
I'm an awful, no good thief of the night
I'll take it to the grave
On a freight train to hell
I'll be running from the devil boys
And dead men tell no tales
I'll be running from the devil boys
And dead men tell no tales
