Ladies Love Outlaws - Waylon Jennings
[Verse 1]
[D]Bessie was a lovely child from[G] West Tennessee
[A]Leroy was an outlaw hard and [D]mean
One [D]day she saw him staring and it [G]chilled her to the bone
And she [A]knew she had to see that look on a child of her [D]own
|[Chorus]
|'Cause [D]ladies love[G] outlaws
|Like [A]babies love [D]stray dogs
|[D]Ladies touch babies like a [G]banker touches gold
|[A]Outlaws touch ladies somewhere deep down in their [D]soul
[Verse 2]
[D]Linda was a lady, [G]blonde and built to last
[A]Benny was a no good guitar picker, running from his p[D]ast
[D]She heard all his songs telling [G]nothing but bad news
[A]But she made her mind up to try to get him win or [D]lose
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
[D]Jessie liked Cadillacs and [G]diamonds on her hands
[A]Waymore had a reputation as a lady's [D]man
[D]Late one night her light of love [G]finally gave a sign
[A]Jessie parked her Cadillac and took her place in [D]line
|[Chorus]
|'Cause [D]ladies love[G] outlaws
|Like [A]babies love [D]stray dogs
|[D]Ladies touch babies like a [G]banker touches gold
|[A]Outlaws touch ladies somewhere deep down in their [D]soul
Outro:
[D]Ladies love[G] outlaws
Like [A]babies love a bunch of [D]stray dogs
[D]Ladies touch babies like a [G]banker touches gold
[A]Outlaws touch ladies somewhere deep down in their [D]soul
