"Outlaw Shit" lyrics

"Outlaw Shit"
(feat. Shooter Jennings)

I'm all for law and order
The way that it should be
This song's about the night they spent
Protecting you from me
Someone called us outlaws
In some old magazine
New York sent a posse down
Like I ain't ever seen

Don't you think this outlaw shit
Has gotten out of hand?
What started out to be a joke
The law don't understand
Was it singing through my nose, boys
That got me busted by the man
This ain't it, this outlaw shit
Has gotten out of hand
Gotten out of hand

We were wrapped up in the music
That's why we never saw
The cars pull up, them boys get out
And the room fill with the law
They came pounding through the back door
In the middle of my song
Then they got me for possession
Of something that was long gone

Don't you think this outlaw shit
Has gotten out of hand?
What started out to be a joke
The law don't understand
Was it singing through my nose, boys
That got me busted by the man
This ain't it, this outlaw shit
Has gotten out of hand
Gotten out of hand
