I shoulda been a cowboy
Livin' in the black hills
Livin' on the outside of the law
Yeah, crazier than Wild Bill
Ridin' my quarter house
Kickin' in saloon doors
Drinkin' double shots of whiskey, yeah
Wearing my single action piece
For all the honest world to see
I shoulda been an outlaw
Ready for a quickdraw
Everybody call me the gunslingin' Southpaw
Ain't no time for runnin'
'Cause ya never saw me comin'
I could be dangerous, I could be famous
Have my name, babe, in all the papers
Sayin' I'm wanted by the law and every woman
Yeah, they'd call me the Southpaw
I'd be stealin' me some kisses
From every little barmaid
Ridin' every westbound rail
Out on bail, say to hell with the James Gang
Livin' underneath the stars
Never give away my heart
Just ride away smiling, yeah
Well, they'd never take this boy alive
'Cause don't ya know that legends never die? (Hey!)
I shoulda been an outlaw
Ready for a quickdraw
Everybody call me the gunslingin' Southpaw
Ain't no time for runnin'
'Cause ya never saw me comin'
I could be dangerous, I could be famous
Have my name, babe, in all the papers
Sayin' I'm wanted by the law and every woman
Yeah, they'd call me the Southpaw, oh!
They'd call me the Southpaw
Well, they'd never take this boy alive
'Cause don't ya know that legends never die
I shoulda been an outlaw
Ready for a quickdraw
Everybody call me the gunslingin' Southpaw
Ain't no time for runnin'
'Cause ya never saw me comin'
I could be dangerous, I could be famous
Have my name, babe, in all the papers
Sayin' I'm wanted by the law and every woman
Yeah, they'd call me the Southpaw
They'd call me the Southpaw
I could be dangerous, I could be famous
Have my name, babe, in all the papers, yeah
