They Made Me An Outlaw Lyrics by Gotham

Pass The Butter

1972

[Verse 1]
God bless you, woman, you've been too good to me
You kept me goin' and you raised out family
So when I'm gone, find yourself another good man
And bring the children up right on the land
[Verse 2]
Carry me down to my final resting place
Please don't leave a single trace
Tell the children that I've died and I've gone away
And all of heaven watches over you every day
[Chorus]
And I'm goin' down, down, down, ye
And I still got my blues
They made me an outlaw
And I was born to lose
[Verse 2]
So carry me down to my final resting place
Please don't leave a single trace
Tell the children that I've died and I've gone away
But all of heaven watches over you every day
[Chorus]
And I'm goin' down, down, down, ye
I still got the blues
They made me an outlaw
But I was born to lose
