Outlaw running from the law but he's
Got nowhere to run to
Big law he broke it and ran faster

Than the lightning bolt
Chasing down the golden sun, running away
From the blue

He ran with no direction in mind, just
Running like a crazy colt
And he's gonna run let the four winds slap his face

He's gonna fly, let the sky be his guide
He's gonna lie beneath a blanket of stars
He's gonna run, wild as the western wind


Bad lands are sheltering him, maybe Dakota's
His home

Red man's become his friend, when no one else
Would have him
There's an Indian woman who keeps him from

Being alone
She stands tall by his side, but the law's
Got him out on a limb
