A
Well don't you wanna climb a mountain
      E
Yeah don't you wanna ride the river

Drink from a magic fountain

Give your woman all the love that you can give her

Well don't you wanna be an outlaw

Don't you wanna be an outlaw, children
D  E        D                 A                D       A

Well now don't you wanna swim the ocean

Drink some of Mama's love potion

Touch a woman 'til she just can't see

[Bridge]

           C#m           F#m 
Well now Jeese he was a bad boy
   C#m            Bm
He won the Wild West
           C#m                       F#m 
Had many notches on his gun, by the year of 21
     Bm      C#m             D     E
But someone laid him to an early rest

Drink from a magic fountain

Give your woman all the love that you can give her

A               E       D
Don't you wanna be an outlaw
A               E         D
Don't you wanna ride the range
