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
A G D
Wherever you might look tonight you might see this wanted man.
D Em
I might be in Colorado, or Georgia by the sea,
A G D
Working for some man who may not know who I might be
D Em
If you ever see me coming and if you know who I am
A G D
Don't you breathe it to nobody 'cause you know I'm on the lamb.
D Em
Wanted man by Lucy Watson, wanted man by Jeannie Brown
A G D
Wanted man by Nellie Johnson, wanted man in this next town
D Em
I've had all that I wanted of a lot of things I've had
A G D
And a lot more than I needed of some things that turned out bad.[Instrumental]

D Em
I got sidetracked in El Paso, stopped to get myself a map
A G D
Went the wrong way in Juarez with Juanita on my lap.
D Em
Then I went to sleep in Shreveport, woke up in Abilene
A G D
Wonderin' why the hell I'm wanted at some town half way between.
D Em
Wanted man in Albuquerque, wanted man in Syracuse
A G D
Wanted man in Tallahassee, wanted man in Baton Rouge
D Em
There's somebody set to grab me anywhere that I might be
A G D
And wherever you might look tonight, you might get a glimpse of me
