[Verse 1]
I think we ran out of gunpowder
Oh, things keep going up in smoke
There ain’t much law and order around her
otta make justice on your own
Pass the whiskey’s at an all-time high
Without getting drunk, it’s hard getting by
Maybe I should go grab my .45
And go down to the bank

[Chorus]
And say, “Put your hands up

Where I can see ’em”
“Man, put that money in the bag, goddammit, I don’t mean to be rude”
I’d take the first stagecoach out to (??)
If I was an outlaw
Hell, that’s what I’d do

[Verse 2]
Life ain’t what it used to be
Wish you could swing by the

[saloon] (??)
Grab a couple shots with your boys
Without anyone shooting you
Heard tales of the legends of west
We need ’em on back here to clean up this mess
Hell, maybe I’ll go grab my six-iron
And head into town

[Chorus]
And say, “Put your hands up
Where I can see ’em”
“Everybody off of this wagon right now, I’m robbing you”
And I’d ride that stagecoach out to (??)
If I was an outlaw
Hell, that’s what I’d do

[Outro]
If I was an outlaw
Hell, that’s what I’d do
If I was an outlaw
Hell, that’s what I’d do
