Living On the Outside
I've got steel on my fingers, granite on my breath
A bottle in one ear and a spike in my chest
A nickel in my boot and my finger in a damn
I hang out with a bunch of losers I call my friends, and we sing
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
But I'm headin' out today, I'm goin' down Elijah's way
Spinnin' wheels on fire, with that speed needle between my jeans
So darlin', show me what you're hiding behind that ring
Behind your pink silhouette, young lust balcony
C'mon baby, just ride with me
C'mon baby, just ride with me
C'mon baby, just ride with me
We got 2,000 miles between here and home
They won't even know we're gone
I got my mama's smile and my daddy's gun
You got your honest face and your liar's tongue
Until Armageddon takes me
It's just you and me, baby
Running like the only sinners left
Loving like the only sinners left
Livin' like the only sinners left alive
Livin' on the outside
I got one shot to steal this world
If you wanna go with me, you can be my girl
Here's a bullet for your thoughts and a penny for the train
Next time I'm here, they'll be diggin' my grave
C'mon baby, just ride with me
C'mon baby, just ride with me
We got 2,000 miles between here and home
They won't even know we're gone
I got my mama's smile and my daddy's gun
You got your honest face and your liar's tongue
Until Armageddon takes me
It's just you and me, baby
Running like the only sinners left
Loving like the only sinners left
Livin' like the only sinners left alive
Livin' on the outside
Livin' on the outside (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Livin' on the outside (oh yeah, yeah, livin')
Livin' on the outside (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh)
Livin' on the outside (oh yeah, oh yeah, oh hey)
If I gotta go, then I'm going in style
You're gonna find me running down that Calvary mile
A beggar's son on the potter's tree
C'mon baby, just ride with me
C'mon baby, just ride with me
C'mon baby, just ride with me
Come on!
Come on!
We got 2,000 miles between here and home
They won't even know we're gone
I got my mama's smile and my daddy's gun
Bring your honest face and your liar's tongue
Until Armageddon takes me
It's just you and me, baby
Running like the only sinners left
Living like the only sinners left
Loving like the only sinners left alive
Living on the outside
A bottle in one ear and a spike in my chest
A nickel in my boot and my finger in a damn
I hang out with a bunch of losers I call my friends, and we sing
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

But I'm headin' out today, I'm goin' down Elijah's way

C'mon baby, just ride with me
C'mon baby, just ride with me

Running like the only sinners left
Living like the only sinners left
Loving like the only sinners left alive
Living on the outside
