Bessie was a lovely child from West Tennessee
Leroy was an outlaw, hard and mean
One night she saw him staring and it chilled her to the bone
She knew she had to see that look on a child of her own 'Cause ladies love outlaws
Like babies love stray dogs
Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold
Outlaws touch ladies somewhere deep down in their soul Jessie like Cadillacs and diamonds on her hands
Waymore had a reputation as a lady's man
Then one night, her light of love finally gave a sign
Jessie parked her Cadillac and got her [Incomprehensible] in line 'Cause ladies love outlaws
Like babies love a bunch of stray dogs
Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold
Outlaws touch ladies somewhere deep down in their soul Yeah, ladies love outlaws
Like babies love a bunch of stray dogs
Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold
Outlaws touch ladies anywhere they want
