Modern Day Cowboy

Whiskey River ran dry and I’m the one that drank it
On the Highway to Hell, I’ve got the radio crankin'
Sheriff swears he can smell the weed burn
Hell yeah I’m getting high 'cause I’m the one who’s hurtin'
Starin' down the face of a double barrel
Got my hand on the wheel with my foot on the pedal
And if theres a problem we can get it settled
'Cause under my seat I got a .38 Special
I was born to be an outlaw and I can’t change
Just like my daddy, I’m stuck in my ways
A moonshine still, make a little cash
Ain’t got no friends that stab me in my back
I worry about myself and darlin' thats all
I’m a modern day cowboy, runnin' from the law
I keep my boots waiting for the knock on the door
It’s a quarter past 3:00, I bet I don’t see 4:00
Tell the preacher at the church, say a prayer for me
'Cause the sheriff brought a posse like I ain’t seen
This outlaw shit couldn’t get any worse
The only way I’m goin' down gotta leave in a hearse
The clock starts tickin' every shotgun blast
Can you let my father know I left the Bible on the dash
I was born to be an outlaw and I can’t change
Just like my daddy, I’m stuck in my ways
A moonshine still, make a little cash
Ain’t got no friends that stab me in my back
I worry about myself and darlin' thats all
I’m a modern day cowboy, runnin' from the law
When the sun comes up they’ll shoot a man down
Tell my mama that I love her and I’m sorry now
'Cause all she ever wanted was some company
Lord I know she can see my old man in me
I was born to be an outlaw and I can’t change
Just like my daddy, I’m stuck in my ways
A moonshine still, make a little cash
Ain’t got no friends that stab me in my back
I worry about myself and darlin' thats all
I’m a modern day cowboy, runnin' from the law
Modern day cowboy runnin'
Runnin', runnin'
A modern day cowboy
Runnin', runnin'
Runnin' modern day cowboy
Runnin'
