Emmylou Harris – Belle Starr Lyrics  Share

From Emmylou Harris's album: All The Roadrunning

(feat. Mark Knopfler)

My mamma and my daddy
Told me that love is a two-way street
But lately baby, you^,ve been finding
New ways of dragging yout feet
So come on, make your best shot
You don^,t have to take the blame
I^,ll be your belle star
You can be my Jesse James

There^,s lonely people everywhere
From Abilene to Arkansas
The way they run for cover
You^,d think love was against the law
Well i don^,t need a pistol , baby
You won^,t have to rob a train
You can be my belle star
And i can be your Jesse James

I know you^,ve done some hard time
[ Belle Starr lyrics from

Baby, and you^,ve got your doubts
When you feel surrounded
And it^,s looking there^,s no way out
I^,ll come riding to rescue
All you gotta do is call my name
I^,ll be your belle star
You can be my Jesse James

It don^,t take a genius, baby
There aint no big mystery
You can^,t play it safe
And still go down in history
So saddle up the horses
^,Cos we^,re headed for the hall of fame
I^,ll be your belle star
You can be my Jesse James
I^,ll be your belle star
You can be my Jesse James
