Outlaws
i On one Saturday evening Just around the hour of two, Harvey Logan and his partner Was playin' a game of pool, O my babe, my honey babe.
2  They was playin' for the money, And the money wouldn't go right, And that's when old Harvey Logan Got into a fight,
O my babe, my honey babe.
3  ,The police heard the racket And the billets they did break; Harvey Logan gave 'em a contest With a smokin' .38,
O my babe, my honey babe.
4  They took him down to Knoxville And they locked him in the jail. Because he was a stranger
No one would go his bail, O my babe, my honey babe.
5  Put the guards before him,
And marched him down the stairs 3 Said, "All I want in this wide world Is the jailer's big fine mare," O my babe, my honey babe.
6  "Harvey, now, Harvey,
You know you're doin' me wrong." Says, "Hush up your cryin', boy, An' put that saddle on," O my babe, my honey babe.
