Wanted Man Lyrics

by Nick Cave The Bad Seed

I'm a wanted man, wanted man...

I'm wanted, I'm a wanted man...

Oh yeah...

yeah...

ah honey, I'm a wanted man





I'm a wanted man in California, I'm a wanted man in Buffalo

I'm a wanted man in Kansas City, I'm a wanted man in Ohio

I'm a wanted man in Mississippi, they want me in old Cheyenne

Wherever you may look tonight, you will see this wanted man





I might be in Colorado or Georgia by the sea,

Working for some man who may not know at all who I might be

If you ever see me comin' and you know justa who I am,

Don't breathe a word to no one buddy, 'cause I'm a wanted man





Wanted man in Albuquerque, wanted man in Syracuse,

Wanted man in Tallahassee, wanted man in Baton Rouge,

Wanted man in Arizona, wanted man in Galveston,

Wanted man in El Dorado, this wanted man's in great demand





If you ever catch me sleepin',

just see the price flashin' 'bove my head,

Well take look again my friend,

that's a gun pointed at your head





Wanted man by Lucy Watson, wanted man by Jesse Brown,

Wanted man by Nellie Johnson, wanted man in this next town





Wanted man by the Boller(?) Sisters,

wanted man by Kid Callahan

Hey Darlin' don't you tell me you don't want me,

cause I'm a wanted man





A wanted man who's lost his will to live,

a wanted man who won't lay down,

There's a woman kneelin' on my grave,

pushin' daisies in the ground





Wanted man in the Windy City, wanted man in Tennessee,

Wanted man in Broken Arrow, wanted man in Wounded Knee

Wanted man in Jackson Town, Wanted man in El Passo,

I got bounties on my head in towns I wouldn't ever think to go





Wanted Man in Arizona, wanted man in Louisville,

Wanted man deep in Death Valley,

wanted man up in the Hollywood Hill





If the Devil comes collectin',

cause he doesn't know I'm a wanted man,

he'd better wear a six gun on his hip

and hold another in his hand





If you love the wanted man,

you best hold him while you can,

cause you're gonna wake up one mornin'

and find the man you wanted, he is gone





Wanted man in New York City, wanted man in San Anton'

Wanted man down in Lorado, wanted man in Tupelo

Wanted man in the state of Texas, wanted man in the state of Maine

This wanted man's in the state of leavin' ya baby,

jumpin' on a midnight train





Wanted man in every cat house, wanted man in a many saloons,

Wanted man is a ghost in hundred homes, a shadow in a thousand rooms





Wanted man down in St. Louis, wanted man in New Orleans

Wanted man in Mussel(?) Bay, wanted man in Cripple Creek

Wanted man in Detriot City, wanted man in San Anton'

But there's one place I'm not wanted lord,

it's the place that I call home





Wanted man...

Wanted man...

If the devil comes collectin'

he better hold a six gun in his hand
