Lyrics
Wanted Man
By Steve Burdette & Randy Bishop (ASCAP)

VI
Showin' my face 'round here is crazy
I know I have to escape, but I'm lazy
Every day I fantasize
I'll find a place where I can hide
A place where I am free
And I feel alive
CHORUS I:
I need a place where I've got my freedom
Not many people and lots of land
Across the border so the law can't find me
'Cause I'm a wanted man
V2
I shot a thief one day
But no one was around to say
That he was tryin' to rob an old man
And now he never can
I used my Smith & Wesson
So that guy won't be confessin'
'Cause my aim was pretty good that day
Yeah, I made him pay
CHORUS II
I need a place where I've got some freedom
Not many people and lots of land
I'll head to the border so nobody can find me
'Cause I'm a wanted man
BRIDGE:
Won't spend my life lookin' through bars
Not in a box where I can't see the stars
CHORUS III
I need a place where I've got my freedom
Someplace to hide while I'm makin' plans
Across the border so the law can't find me
'Cause, I'm a wanted man
Whoa....Yeah, I'm a wanted man
