Written by Johnny Cash & Bob Dylan
Wanted man in California,
Wanted man in Buffalo
Wanted man in Kansas City,
Wanted man in Ohio
If you ever see me coming
and if you know who I am
Don't you breathe it to nobody
'cause you know I'm on the lamb
Wanted man in Albuquerque,
Wanted man in Syracuse
Wanted man in Tallahassee,
Wanted man in Baton Rouge
Wanted man in Mississippi,
Wanted man in ol' Cheyenne
Wherever you might look tonight
you might see this wanted man
I might be in Colorado,
Or Georgia by the sea
Working for some man
who may not know at all who I might be
Then I went to sleep in Shreveport,
Woke up in Abilene
Wonderin' why the hell I'm wanted
at some town half way between
Wanted man in California,
Wanted man in Buffalo
Wanted man in Kansas City,
Wanted man in Ohio
Wanted man in Mississippi,
Wanted man in ol' Cheyenne
Wherever you might look tonight
you might see this wanted man
But I've had all that I wanted
of a lot of things I've had
And a lot more than I needed
of some things that turned out bad
I got sidetracked in El Paso,
Stopped to get myself a map
Went the wrong way in TiJuarez
with Juanita on my back
Wanted man in California,
Wanted man in Buffalo
Wanted man in Kansas City,
Wanted man in Ohio
Wanted man in Mississippi,
Wanted man in ol' Cheyenne
Wherever you might look tonight
you might see this wanted man
Wanted man in California,
Wanted man in Buffalo
Wanted man in Kansas City,
Wanted man in Ohio
If you ever see me coming
and if you know who I am
Don't you breathe it to nobody
'cause you know I'm on the lamb
Wanted man in Albuquerque,
Wanted man in Syracuse
Wanted man in Tallahassee,
Wanted man in Baton Rouge
Wanted man in Mississippi,
Wanted man in ol' Cheyenne
Wherever you might look tonight
you might see this wanted man
I might be in Colorado,
Or Georgia by the sea
Working for some man
who may not know at all who I might be
Then I went to sleep in Shreveport,
Woke up in Abilene
Wonderin' why the hell I'm wanted
at some town half way between
Wanted man in California,
Wanted man in Buffalo
Wanted man in Kansas City,
Wanted man in Ohio
Wanted man in Mississippi,
Wanted man in ol' Cheyenne
Wherever you might look tonight

But I've had all that I wanted
of a lot of things I've had
And a lot more than I needed

Wanted man in California,
