The first time I heard Good Hearted Woman, I was in my uncle's car
He said, son, now that's what I call music, listen to them guitars
You turn it up, go on, turn it up
He said, forget that * you're listening to, these songs they got to me
I don't think I heard a single word, cause I was caught up in the baby
Yeah, I turned it up, yeah, I turned it way up
It was wild guitar playing loud and hard, some hibbily rock and roll
It was something new, breaking all the rules, man, I could feel it down in my soul
It was well in a wheelie, paycheck
Checking cash, taking the country back
Yeah, times were tough and it was hard to find a job
Well, 79 was a good day for the outlaws
Well, it was something like five years later, I finally got my license to drive
I was hugging a curb, first time I heard, a country boy can't survive
And I turned it up, I turned it up
It was wild guitar playing loud and hard, some hibbily rock and roll
It was something new, breaking all the rules, but you could feel it down in your soul
It was the son of the original, son of a gun, taking the country back
The economy was the worst you ever saw
Yeah, but 85 was a good year for the outlaws, son
It was something new, breaking all the rules, man, I could feel it down in my soul
Yeah, it was something new, breaking all the rules, man, I could feel it down in my soul
It was something new, breaking all the rules, man, I could feel it down in my soul
Now somewhere in some honky tonk, you don't even know his name
Some young upstart just stopped playing hard to get, and I couldn't find him
Startin' up and he's wantin' to make a change
He says, turn it up
He says, turn it up
Come on, boys, sing!
They give me loud guitars, playin' loud and hard
A little hip, bitty rock and roll
Makin' somethin' new, breakin' all the rules
I wanna feel it down in my soul
Was winnin' a wheelie, paycheckin' cash
Takin' the country back
I just wanna sing a song that gets me off
It just might be a good year for the outlaws
I just wanna sing a song that gets me off
It just might be a good year for the outlaws
Just might be a good year for the outlaws
Just might be a good year for the outlaws
Just might be a good year for the outlaws
Just might be a good year for the outlaws
Just might be a good year for the outlaws
Just might be a good year for the outlaws
Just might be a good year for the outlaws
