Chris Stapleton - Outlaw State Of Mind

"Outlaw State of Mind" by Chris Stapleton explores the rebellious spirit of those who live life on their own terms with little regard for societal norms and conventions. The song paints a picture of a character who has been shaped by his experiences, cutting his teeth on his father's guitar and losing his mind in New Mexico. He has a snake tattooed on his back, perhaps symbolizing his rebellious nature, and a redbone dog by his side, which may represent his loyal and steadfast companionship.

Lyrics:
Outlaw State Of Mind
Chris Stapleton

Cut my teeth on Daddy's old LGO
And I lost my mind somewhere in New Mexico
And TW put a snake on my back
I keep a redbone on my side

And there's people all across the land
From East Kentucky down to Alabam'
Whole lotta like I am all the time
In an outlaw state of mind

I've got friends that know how to have a good time
Yeah, they roll their own and drink Carolina shine
I've seen the devil in a dark coal mine
I've been higher than a Georgia pine

And there's people all across the land
From West Virginia to the Rio Grande
Whole lotta like I am all the time all the time
In an outlaw state of mind

And there's people all across the land
From New York out to old San Fran'
Just don't give a damn all the time
In an outlaw state of mind
