Lyrics
Alvin:
Waylon, Waylon Jennings!
The biggest, baddest outlaw in the west.
My hero.
Waylon:
Hey Alvin.
Alvin:
How I'd love to be an outlaw
Acting bad and looking cool
How I'd love to be an outlaw
Playin' hooky, skippin' school (yeah!)
Robbin' banks and buying candy
And eat it all all by myself (ha ha ha)
I'd buy a brand new bike and skateboard
For me to ride and no one else
Waylon:
Now little haus, I think there's something I ought tell you.
It ain't no fun to be an outlaw
When there's a posse on your trail
It ain't no fun to be an outlaw
Behind some bars in a jail
Nights are cold out in the desert
With the ground beneath your hair
Sleeping out in stormy weather
When you could be home in bed
Alvin:
Nah! I'd still love to be an outlaw
And never take a bath for years
How I'd love to be an outlaw
And never wash behind my ears (ha ha ha)
Waylon:
It ain't no fun to be an outlaw
It ain't cool being bad
It ain't no fun to be an outlaw
So stay home with mom and dad
Alvin:
Mom and dad? Come on Waylon!
Let's get on the back of your Harley and pain the town.
Waylon:
Nah, I thought you were grounded.
Alvin:
Yeah, but for no good reason.
Waylon:
Well whatcha do?
Alvin:
I put a little super glue in Dave's boots.
He had to wear them everywhere, even in the bathtub.
Waylon:
Ah, I see.
Alvin:
Um, well there's more.
Waylon:
What else?
Alvin:
Well, there was this jukebox.
Waylon:
You mean the one that blew up?
Alvin:
Now that could of happened to anyone!
Waylon:
Uh huh. Well, is that it?
Alvin:
Well, I accidentally exchanged Dave's earplugs with bubble gum.
He still can't get it out.
Waylon:
Uh, I see. Well I bet it whatn't worth all the trouble you've gotten into.
Now was it?
Alvin:
Yeah, it was.
Waylon:
Alvin.
Alvin:
Alright, alright. I hate it!
Locked in this house! No TV!
Alvin & Waylon:
I don't want to be an outlaw
It just ain't cool being bad
I don't want to be an outlaw
So stay home with mom and dad
Alvin:
Uh, Waylon? Do you think you can talk to Dave for me?
Tell him to lighten up. Oh, and remember you have to talk real loud.
He can't hear too well with all that bubble gum stuck in his ears.
