Lyrics
Dust on my boots from three states back
Warrant sitting in some county drawer
Judge can keep his gavel swinging
I ain't crossing back through that door
Mississippi dark at two in the morning
Louisiana waiting just ahead
A man with nothing left to answer for
Just rides until he runs out of road instead
[Chorus] Outlaw miles, outlaw miles
Burning down the highway through the dark
Outlaw miles, outlaw miles
Some fires keep you warm and some just mark
[Verse 2] Met a woman in a Vicksburg bar
Said she could see trouble in my eyes
I told her trouble was the only thing
That ever told me anything but lies
She poured me one more for the road ahead
Didn't ask me where or why
Some people understand the leaving kind
Just watch you go and don't say goodbye
[Bridge] The law is just a line drawn in the dirt
The wind comes through and moves it every day
I been on the wrong side long enough
To know the right side ain't that far away
[Chorus] Outlaw miles, outlaw miles
Burning down the highway through the dark
Outlaw miles, outlaw miles
Some fires keep you warm and some just mark
