Verse 1

They didn’t like Him
From the get go
The way He spoke His mind
Felt like He killed the light
On their show
Wouldn’t tow their line
They were callin’ Him a
Law breaker
World shaker
They couldn’t stand His kind so

Chorus 1

He got the shackles
I got the freedom
He got the scars
I got the healing
He’s an innocent man
On a Cross
Hangin’ up there
Just like an outlaw

Chorus 2

He got convicted
I got deliverance
He got the guilty
I got forgiven
I’ll be shoutin’ till
My last breath
How I found my life
In the death
Of an outlaw

Verse 2

Ran the roads
With the low class
Loved the ragged and the rough
Friend of sinners and the outcast
He really shook things up
He became marked and labeled
When He turned their tables
They were out for blood

Chorus 1

He got the shackles
I got the freedom
He got the scars
I got the healing
He’s an innocent man
On a Cross
Hangin’ up there
Just like an outlaw

Chorus 2

He got convicted
I got deliverance
He got the guilty
I got forgiven
I’ll be shoutin’ till
My last breath
How I found my life
In the death
Of an outlaw

Interlude

Of an outlaw

Bridge

All He ever did
Was speak the truth
All He ever did
Was bring good news
All He ever did
Was let love loose
Does that make Him
A wanted man

Chorus 1

He got the shackles
I got the freedom
He got the scars
I got the healing
He’s an innocent man
On a Cross
Hangin’ up there
Just like an outlaw

Chorus 2

He got convicted
I got deliverance
He got the guilty
I got forgiven
I’ll be shoutin’ till
My last breath
How I found my life
In the death
Of an outlaw

Outro
