Lyrics

Outlaw Mother
V1
Can't nobody blame her for the way that she turned out
Her daddy tried to raise her, best way he knew how
She learned how to fight and cuss like all the boys
Had a baby at sixteen and named her Charlotte Rose
Then left her at the church and hit the road

Chorus
Now She's an outlaw mother
Only God and Jesus love her
Can't no man ever tame her heart
Her home is on the road
Chasing out old ghosts
She wears all the scars of what she’s done
She’s an outlaw mother on the run

V2
She made her way to Austin and killed a man who bet
She couldn't hold her liquor or the pistol in her belt
12 shots down and one shot fired she put him in the grave
All the wanted posters got a picture of her face
She’s headed east running in a blaze

Chorus
Now She's an outlaw mother
Only God and Jesus love her
Can't no man ever tame her heart
Her home is on the road
Chasing out old ghosts
She wears all the scars of what she’s done
She’s an outlaw mother on the run

V3
When Rose and me got married, her mama dressed in black
That's the last I saw her until the day that she came back
Banging on the door with a bible in her hand
Confessing all her sins, said that she'd be damned
Forgiveness is for saints and weaker men

Chorus
She's my outlaw mother
Only God and Jesus love her
Can't no man ever tame her heart
Her home is on the road
Chasing out old ghosts
Pride won’t let her lay them burdens down
She's my outlaw mother
Try my best to love her
Don't nobody ever bless her heart
Her hair is turning grey
Her boots are cracked and worn
Wearing all the scars from things she’s done
She's an outlaw mother on the run
She's my outlaw mother on the run
