THREE CHORDS AND A WARNING LABEL (Cooper/Jones) 

All Rights Reserved 2025   

 

I’m stripped to the bone 

Runnin’ down a dirt road 

Ain’t no GPS for gone  

I’m lookin’ for a belle, 

A trailer park Mona Lisa  

With a high-noon heart for sale  

 

No regular gal  

Can ever win my heart  

I want an Annie-get-yer-gun now sort  

With one for the money 

Two turtle doves 

We’ll be married to the tune of love 

 

With three chords and a warning label 

We’ll be rocking every barn and stable  

Got pistol hearts and two guitars 

We’ll be livin’ like outlaws 

 

In our low-budget Heaven 

Where the whole world is watchin’ 

We’ll be two-steppin’ through our dreams  

Singin’ our songs  

To the masses and throngs 

Of cowboys and cowgirl-ies  

 

With three chords and a warning label 

We’ll be rockin’ every barn and stable  

Got pistol hearts and two guitars 

We’ll be livin’ like outlaws 

 

Baby we were born to misbehave 

As small-time, Z-list, changin’ our names  

Hidin’ in plain sight  

You’ll be Bonnie, I’ll be Clyde  

 

Gamblers, dreamers and everyday folks  

Wish they were us, livin’ life on the road 

With love as our Northern star  

One day we could go far 

 

With three chords and a warning label
