Woke up in Abilene
And wherever you might look tonight
I got side tracked in El Paso
I might be in Colorado
There's somebody set to grab me
Stopped to get myself a map
Wanted man in the Kansas City
Wonderin' why I'm wanted
Wanted man by Lucy Watson
And a lot more than I needed
Wanted man in Tallahassee
Went the wrong way in Pleura
With Juanita on my back
Wanted man in ol' Cheyenne
Wherever you might look tonight
'Cause you know I'm on the lamb
Wanted man in Buffalo
Wanted man in California
Wanted man in Mississippi
Wanted man in Syracuse
Don't you breathe it to nobody
Wherever you might look tonight
Wanted man in Mississippi
Wanted man in this next town
Wanted man in the Kansas City
And if you know who I am
Well I've had all that I wanted
Wanted man in the Ohio
Anywhere that I might be
Wanted man in Baton Rouge
At some town half way between
Wanted man in ol' Cheyenne
Wanted man by Jeannie Brown
Wanted man in the Ohio
Then I went to sleep in Shreveport
Of a lot of things I've had
Know who I might be
And if you ever see me coming
Wanted man by Nellie Johnson
You might get a glimpse of me
You might see this wanted man
Of some things that turned out bad
Working for some man who may not
Wanted man in Albuquerque
Or Georgia by the sea
