We was broke and hungry on a summer day
They sent the sheriff down to try and drive us away
We were sittin' ducks for the police man

They found a dirty faced kid in a garbage can

And I'm alone

I'm on the highway
Wanted, dead or alive
Dead or alive


Broken down and dirty, dressed in rags
My from the day, my Mama told me "Boy, you pack your

bags."
I send the mayor down in his pickup truck
The jury look at me, say "Outta luck"


And I'm alone
And I'm on the highway

Wanted dead or alive
Dead or alive


Now, I'm broken down and dirty, dressed in rags
A from the day, my Mama told me "Boy, you pack your
bags"

And we were sittin' ducks for the police man
They found a dirty faced kid in a garbage can
Dirty yeah, yeah


Babe, I'm alone
And I'm on the highway

Wanted dead or alive
Dead or alive


I'm gone
Baby, let me run
I'm a spark on the horizon
