******************* LADIES LOVE OUTLAWS ******************
written by Lee Clayton
performed by Waylon Jennings.
Capo on the 2nd fret.
Verse 1:
Bessie was a lovely child from West Tennessee
Leroy was an outlaw hard and mean
One day she saw him starring & it chilled her to the bone
She knew she had to see that look on a child of her own
Chorus:
'Cause ladies love outlaws
Like babies love stray dogs
Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold
Outlaws touch ladies somewhere deep down in their soul
Verse 2:
Linda was a lady,blonde and built to last
Benny was a no good guitar picker,running from his past
She heard all his songs telling nothing but bad news
But she made her mind up to try to get him win or lose
Chorus.
Verse 3:
Jessie like cadillacs & diamonds on her hands
Waymore had a reputation as a lady's man
Late one night her light of love finally gave a sign
Jessie parked her cadillac and took her place in line
Chorus (x2).
