Discover the story of the song > Outlaw Man – Eagles

The song tells the story of a man, an outlaw. He leads a life on the road, carrying a gun and a Bible. He warns a woman not to love him and not to try to understand him because the life of an outlaw is not easy. He left his wife in Santa Fe and is now heading to Oklahoma. He meets many strangers and his love is always in danger because he steals hearts and souls. He is considered a sinner by some and a saint by others, and he says that when you have no life to lose, there is nothing left to gain.
