Renegade - Styx

Oh Mama, I’m in fear for my life from the long arm of the law

Lawman has put an end to my running, and I’m so far from my home

Oh Mama, I can hear you a-cryin', you’re so scared and all alone

Hangman is comin' down from the gallows, and I don’t have very long

(Yeah!)

The jig is up, the news is out

They finally found me

The renegade who had it made

Retrieved for a bounty

Nevermore to go astray

This’ll be the end today

Of the wanted man

Oh Mama, I’ve been years on the lam and had a high price on my head

Lawman said, «Get him dead or alive;»

I was for sure he’ll see me dead

Dear Mama, I can hear you a-cryin', you’re so scared and all alone

Hangman is comin' down from the gallows, and I don’t have very long

The jig is up, the news is out

They finally found me

The renegade who had it made

Retrieved for a bounty

Nevermore to go astray

The judge will have revenge today

On the wanted man

Oh Mama, I’m in fear for my life from the long arm of the law

Hangman is comin' down from the gallows, and I don’t have very long

The jig is up, the news is out

They finally found me

The renegade who had it made

Retrieved for a bounty

Nevermore to go astray

This’ll be the end today

Of the wanted man

The wanted man

And I don’t wanna go, no, no

Mama, don’t let 'em take me!

Hey, hey

No, no, no, I can’t go
