Hear the blast from a shotgun
Seemed to disappear into the night
Ain't no two-bit lawman
Got a chance in hell of takin' my life
ย
Spend most of my nights down by a campfire
Light up the stars with my game
Left home at only fifteen
Started out to make my name
ย
And we were, American outlaws
Ridin', across the plain
From Montana, down to Mexico
Tryin' to find, a better way
ย
I see our names on railroad posters
Sayin' we're wanted all around this land
Got ambushed by 16 enemy soldiers
At the creek just north of Choctaw Canyon
ย
Bullets spread out over the horizon
There was no fear in our eyes
Hear they sent 16 in to get us
Word is that only two survived, oh, yeah
ย
And we were, American outlaws
Ridin', across the plain
From Montana, down to Mexico
Tryin' to find, a better way
ย
Headed down south to hangouts in Mexico
Gonna to let the smoke clear for a while
Taking that low down dirty tequila
Them senoritas sure make us smile
ย
Some say we're no longer livin'
Half a million voices took our lives
If you hear the blast from a shotgun
Might see us reappear into the night
ย
And we were, American outlaws
Ridin', across the plain
From Montana, down to Mexico
Tryin' to find, a better way
