We was broke and hungry on a summer day
They sent the sheriff down to try and drive us away
We were sittin' ducks for the police man
They found a dirty faced kid in a garbage can
And I'm alone
I'm on the highway
Wanted, dead or alive
Dead or alive
Broken down and dirty, dressed in rags
My from the day, my Mama told me Boy, you pack your bags.
I send the mayor down in his pickup truck
The jury look at me, say Outta luck
And I'm alone
And I'm on the highway
Wanted dead or alive
Dead or alive
Now, I'm broken down and dirty, dressed in rags
A from the day, my Mama told me Boy, you pack your bags
And we were sittin' ducks for the police man
They found a dirty faced kid in a garbage can
Dirty yeah, yeah
Babe, I'm alone
And I'm on the highway
Wanted dead or alive
Dead or alive
I'm gone
Baby, let me run
I'm a spark on the horizon
