Verse 1: D G Bessie was a lovely child from West Tennessee A D Leroy was an outlaw hard and mean G One day she saw him starring & it chilled her to the bone A D She knew she had to see that look on a child of her own Chorus: D G 'Cause ladies love outlaws A D Like babies love stray dogs G Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold A D Outlaws touch ladies somewhere deep down in their soul
Verse 2: D G Linda was a lady,blonde and built to last A D Benny was a no good guitar picker,running from his past G She heard all his songs telling nothing but bad news A D But she made her mind up to try to get him win or lose Chorus.
Verse 3: D G Jessie like cadillacs & diamonds on her hands A D Waymore had a reputation as a lady's man G Late one night her light of love finally gave a sign A D Jessie parked her cadillac and took her place in line
I'm the dandy highwayman who you're too scared to mention I spend my cash on looking flash and grabbing your attention The devil take your stereo and your record collection! The way you look you'll qualify for next year's old age pension!
Stand and deliver your money or your life! Try and use a mirror no bullet or a knife!
I'm the dandy highwayman so sick of easy fashion The clumsy boots, peek-a-boo roots that people think so dashing So what's the point of robbery when nothing is worth taking? It's kind of tough to tell a scruff the big mistake he's making
Stand and deliver your money or your life! Try and use a mirror no bullet or a knife!
And even though you fool your souls Your conscience will be mine All mine
We're the dandy highwaymen so tired of excuses Of deep meaning philosophies where only showbiz loses We're the dandy highwaymen and here's our invitation "throw your safety overboard and join our insect nation"
Stand and deliver your money or your life! Try and use a mirror no bullet or a knife!
And even though you fool your souls Your conscience will be mine, all mine

dragonfly88: do cowgirls smoke? are there any cowgirls?
There is NOW!..................
You see Dragonfly, why you gotta work on rolling ciggies with ONE hand? .. You gotta hold the reins of your horse with the other hand. Only when you lassoing the cows can you use both hands, and then you stick your ciggie on your lip ........
smoky: Sorry Jbibiza ... I just been Pschoanalysed and worked out that I must like Outlaws because I roll my own ciggies - like a cowboy........
That´s ok Smoky... I roll my own as well... and yes there are cowgirls, I used to be one. I did a few rodeos riding saddle bronc and barrel racing, even dated a couple of bullriders...
Not much of a choice now if you had said ...a rebel without a cause ......or a john lennon look alike ............you might have got more positive replies
Outlaws have no style or class, Highwaymen do. So if the only choice the ladies have are these two, I'd suggest going with the Highwayman.
Now if there were a third choice say Warrior then Ladies you would have the right person if what you are looking for is safety, with some adventure thrown in, plus the Warriors I know and knew are honest, honerable and DAMN loyal.
