Wanted Man from Wanted Man by Scott T. Smith

I can hear the sound of that train rollin'
like thunder in the sky
Oh it takes my mind on a journey
to a simpler place and time

I can hear those hooves crackin'
like lightning on the pine
oh, how I wish I could take a break
I can feel the miles in the bottom of my spine

But I'm a wanted man
and I'll do what I can
to push further down the line

Oh I still remember the day
everything began to change
I met myself a stranger
and her name was fate
She said my yoke is easy and my burden is light boy
we could lead a simple kind of life

But I'm a wanted man
and I'll do what I can
to push further down the line
hope I make it out this time

Well The wind grew cold and the frost turned white
my black rimmed hat
and I could hide my love for you my dear
but I couldn't hide my tracks
my luck ran out back in Tennessee
Oh the Marshall caught up with me

But I'm a wanted man
and I'll do what I can
to push further down the line
hope I make it out this time
Cause she's my reason why
