Outlaw
I am not an outlaw, but I've stolen hearts
in the trunk of my car, I've got lots of parts
I've taken, & collected what was indebted to me
I am not an angel, but I can be good sometimes
Listen real well, & honey I'll come down on your side
be the sugar in your coffee on days you need a little sweet
I am not a soldier, but I will fight for you
do dirty work, whatever I have to do
I don't have a gun, but I've got these two hands
If you can love me for the real me
& not want all the things I'm not
We can be free, & live happy
without having to feel caught
if you can love me for the real me
I'll love you for the real you
& that is all I want
I am not a devil, but trouble is attractive to me
so if you break the rules I'll do it simultaneously
If we end up in jail, I'll hold your hand through the bars
I am not a housewife, but I'll make you dinner tonight
I like to be your lady, & to make you feel alright
since you like what I bring, maybe you could bring it home?
If you can love me for the real me
& not want all the things I'm not
We can be free, & live happy
without having to feel caught
if you can love me for the real me
I'll love you for the real you
& that is all I want
I'm not traditional, but I would be your girl
Love song definition in every sense of the word
Dance with you all night, never having left the house
If you can love me for the real me
& not want all the things I'm not
We can be free, & live happy
without having to feel caught
if you can love me for the real me
I'll love you for the real you
& that is all I want
I am not an outlaw, but I'd like to steal your heart
I emptied out my old trunk, dumped out all those parts
but you can sit front seat, & pick the music on the radio
in the trunk of my car, I've got lots of parts
I've taken, & collected what was indebted to me
I am not an angel, but I can be good sometimes
Listen real well, & honey I'll come down on your side
be the sugar in your coffee on days you need a little sweet
