What Would Jesse James Say Lyrics

I don't hang around town
I never keep my landing gear down
I love a good motel and the burning smell of wheels on ground
I dont go where I go
Just cause there's money on the road
It's a ramblin way its the same today as it was long ago
I got holes in the soles of my redwing boots
A long way to go before the day is through
my back to the wind, scruff on my chin, my hat pulled down low
I got three hundred horses beneath my hood
More stars at night than in Hollywood
The road lets me be a hawk on the breeze it just goes on and on
Like an outlaw on the run my guitar for a gun if only he were here today
What would Jesse James say
I've seen little cafes
Blowing through towns with no names
I put gas in my truck with the last couple bucks from the jar on the stage
There's a girl that I need
But shes probably going to leave
Shes not to blame any girl would do the same with a drifter like me
Repeat Chorus
Running hard through the big black sky
There's no one else in the desert tonight
I get the feeling running through my vains
I wonder if he ever felt the same
Repeat Chorus
