Lyric

This world’s a jungle there ain’t no justiceLaws of nature rule this landBetter hide your horses, bury your whiskeyHold your woman any way you can
Cause there ain’t no right or wrong, nothing’s carved in stoneIt ain’t cheating if you don’t get caughtJokers laugh and losers grieveCause out here there’s no honor among thieves
That woman you’ve been loving, she was another man’sYou stole her heart while his back was turnedOn every corner there’s an outlaw waitingWho wants to teach you what you never learned
Cause there ain’t no right or wrong, nothing’s carved in stoneIt ain’t cheating if you don’t get caughtJokers laugh and losers grieveCause out here there’s no honor among thieves
This world’s a jungle there ain’t no justiceLaws of nature rule this landSo don’t go crying when her love goes flying toThe thieving arms of another man
There ain’t no right or wrong, nothing’s carved in stoneIt ain’t cheating if you don’t get caughtLove’s a deck of cards read them and weepCause out here there’s no honor among thieves
YeahThere ain’t no right or wrongNothing’s carved in stone
