Armed And Dangerous Lyrics

Waylon Jennings

Verse 1:
Ran my Chevy through the car wash
Threw the beers cans out
Emptied all the ash trays
Cleaned a little house
Got my Allman Brothers cassettes
Stacked up on the dash
Got some jack back in the trunk
And a tank full of gas

Verse 2:
Stopped and bought some roses
To sweep you off your feet
Yes I'm going for the limit, girl
I'm gettin' in the real deep
Dusted off my Dingos
Got my Levis pressed
Gonna break into your heart
And steal what I love best

Chorus:
Yes I'm armed and dangerous
Woman you've made me a desperate man
Armed and dangerous
Comin' for your lovin' yes I am

Verse 3:
Take a ride out in the country
Where the grass is tall and cool
And do some barefoot dancin'
How's that sound to you
And I've got some other things
That I might suggest
But if I put them on this record
I'd be under arrest

Chorus (x2).
