I'm remembering ol' Waylon   And good ol' Johnny Cash   Man, they're an inspiration to what I am   But don't get me wrong   I'm still Texican to the bone   Lord, that's right      I'm passing on the song   Just like my Daddy to his sons   Aw, that's right   This one's for the outlaws before me      You know Indians and outlaws   Don't mind breaking that rules   We'll gladly take your money now   If you play us for a fool      You can't make us run   And you know you can't make us hide, oh, no   You know we have our fun   And we don't quit without a fight, no, we don't   So this one's for the outlaws before me      Well, outlaws are forever   Roaming wild and free   Kicking in all the doors   They didn't even need no key      They didn't let nobody   Tell 'em how it's 'posed to be   This one's for them outlaws   This one's for the outlaws before me      Well I've seen that Folsom prison   Been down that lost highway   You ain't never heard of me   'Cause I do things my way      I sing my song and my boys   They follow me, they follow me   We carry on and through it all   We still believe, we still believe   This one's for the missing outlaws, just like me   Oh, yeah, let's do it Willie      I've always made a living   Making music with my friends   Out on the road again   And Lord knows where I've been      Sometimes the man doesn't like the way I am   So I'll put it in a song   Just take you some and pass it on   This one's for the outlaws just like me      Well, outlaws are forever   Roaming wild and free   Kicking in all the doors   And don't even need no keys      They don't let nobody   Tell us how it's 'posed to be   This one's for the outlaws   This one's for the outlaws   This one's for the outlaws   This one's for the outlaws before me
