Wanted Man

Wanted man in California,
Wanted man in Buffalo,
Wanted man in Kansas City,
Wanted man in Ohio.
Wanted man in Mississippi,
Wanted man in Old Cheyenne,
Wherever you might look tonight
You might see this wanted man.
I might be in Colorado,
Or Georgia by the sea,
Workin' for some man who might
Not know at all who I might be.
If you ever see me comin'
And if you know who I am,
Don't you breathe it to nobody
'Cause you know I'm on the lam.
Wanted man by Lucy Watson,
Wanted man by Jeannie Brown,
Wanted man by Nellie Johnson,
Wanted man in this next town.
Well, I've had all that I wanted
Of a lot of things I had,
And a lot more than I needed
Of some things that turned out bad.
I got sidetracked in El Paso,
Stopped to get myself a map.
Went the wrong to Juarez
With Juanita on my lap.
Then I went to sleep in Shreveport,
Woke up in Abilene
Wonderin' why the hell I'm wanted
At some town halfway between.
Wanted man in Albuquerque,
Wanted man in Syracuse,
Wanted man in Tallahassee,
Wanted man in Baton Rouge.
There's somebody set to grab me
Anywhere that I might be,
And wherever you might look tonight
You might get a glimpse of me.
Wanted man in California,
Wanted man in Buffalo,
Wanted man in Kansas City,
Wanted man in Ohio.
