Outlaw Code
Somewhere on the road again
you can walk among the stars
who pirouette on slide guitars,
seek your soul in a bottle of moonshine,
shuffle the deck of vice and virtue,
spread a little more love around,
hop a freight train to freedom,
and walk a line you draw yourself—
long haired Robin Hood ethics
of the outlaw’s inner code.
