Analysis of The Lady and Her Outlaw
The lady and her outlaw, fell in love one day
The outlaw touched the lady in a very special way
He touched her breasts so gently
And kissed her lips so sweet
The Outlaw, tough and strong
Gently swept her off her feet
Although he is an outlaw, she loves him very much
He's serving time in prison, and she's longing for his touch
He's not a hardened criminal, she knows what's inside....
Of this rough, tough outlaw they've convicted and tried
They say their love won't make it
But they know not what the feel
For only in their hearts can they know their love is real
She waits for him to touch her...soon...again..
Someday...As only he can touch her in that very special way
