Still an outlaw in my mind

 In our teens & twenties we tore through town

Ripped through rails swinging from the rafter 
Didn’t get much done, man we had some fun 
When we reminisce there’s lots of laughter 

Now I’m in my fifties, Completely different man
Ain’t  even a speeding ticket in years 
Weirdly I  find, still an outlaw in my mind 
Truth is still all tied up with fears 

If I see red lights flashing it all comes rushing back 
My head says here they come to get ya 
Even though there ain’t no reason, I’m in a different season
That outlaw he ain’t quite prepared to quit ya

What I need to see though is outlaw dead and buried 
That boy just ain’t the ghost of Christmas past
He’s gone not to return, I make that memory burn 
My choice if I’m to make his memory last 

God, in Grace and Wisdom formed a brand new man 
His creation this time ain’t no felon
In His perfect plan, He buried the old man 
All his outlaw ways went with the quellin.

Psalms 7:17
I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness;
I will sing the praises of the name of the LORD Most High.
