Lyrics 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
