Renegade
by Styx
Oh Mama, I'm in fear for my life
From the long arm of the law
Lawman has put an end to my running
And I'm so far from my home
Oh Mama, I can hear you a crying
And you're so scared and all alone
Hangman is coming down from the gallows
And I don't have very long
This jig is up the news is out
They've finally found me
The renegade who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
This will be the end today of the wanted man
Oh Mama, I've been years on the lam
And had a high price on my head
Lawman said get him dead or alive
Now it's for sure he'll see me dead
Dear Mama, I can hear you a crying
You're so scared and all alone
Hangman is coming down from the gallows
And I don't have very long
This jig is up the news is out
They've finally found me
The renegade who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
The judge will have revenge today
On the wanted man

@Tabuddy Gamez I mean we can all agree that old music is 10x better than new music, but I'm not sure new music is "disgusting". Some of it's good, but most of it isn't.

@Tabuddy Gamez yes yes yes yes

Every time I hear this song I think of my dad yelling "YEEEAAAHH!" at the top of his lungs while we were driving and this was playing on the radio. I knew it was coming, but I wasn't expecting him to scream it. Scared the shit out of me. Good memory.
