[Verse 1]
D G Bessie was a lovely child from West Tennessee A D Leroy was an outlaw hard and mean D G One day she saw him staring and it chilled her to the bone A D And she knew she had to see that look on a child of her own
[Chorus]
D G 'Cause ladies love outlaws A D Like babies love stray dogs D G Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold A D Outlaws touch ladies somewhere deep down in their soul
[Verse 2]
D G Linda was a lady, blonde and built to last A D Benny was a no good guitar picker, running from his past D G She heard all his songs telling nothing but bad news A D But she made her mind up to try to get him win or lose
[Chorus]
D G Ladies love outlaws A D Like babies love stray dogs D G Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold A D Outlaws touch ladies somewhere deep down in their soul
[Verse 3]
D G Jessie liked Cadillacs and diamonds on her hands A D Waymore had a reputation as a lady's man D G Late one night her light of love finally gave a sign A D Jessie parked her Cadillac and took her place in line
[Chorus]
D G 'Cause ladies love outlaws A D Like babies love stray dogs D G Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold A D Outlaws touch ladies somewhere deep down in their soul D G Ladies love outlaws A D Like babies love a bunch of stray dogs D G Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold A D Outlaws touch ladies somewhere deep down in their soul
