Biography:
Confederate Railroad is a country band founded in the early 1990s from Texas, USA. The lead singer is Danny Shirley.
Led by Shirley, the original group which came to the attention of Atlantic president Rick Blackburn, consisted of guitarist Michael Lamb, Gates Nichols on pedal steel, keyboard player Chris McDaniel, Wayne Secrest on bass and Mark DuFresne on drums. Lamb left the group in 1995 and was replaced by Jimmy Dormire.
Despite Confederate Railroad's outward appearance as a tougher-than-leather Southern rock band

**************** NOTORIOUS *****************
Written and performed by Confederate Railroad.
Capo on the 1st fret.
Verse 1:
E
Riding North on Interstate 75
With a nervous fading beauty sitting by his side
A E
And a pistol that he used to pave the way
B7
Down the long black stretches of a dark highway
Verse 2:
E
Ray bought his future with a pound of lead
When he robbed a liquor store and left the clerk for dead
A E
That kid should have put the money in the sack
B7
But he didn't and now there ain't no turning back
Chorus 1:
A E
He's a desperate rider, he's a Jesse James
A E
The best that he could hope for is a household name
A E
There ain't nobody that a man can trust
B7 E
When all his headlines read, notorious
A E
There ain't nobody that a man can trust
B7 E
When all his headlines read, notorious
Verse 3:
E
They pulled out of ? about12 o'clock
Took the heatstroke with the lights off to avoid the road block
A E
Ray killed the motor at the county line
B7
Changed his Tennessee plates to a lost tag sign
Verse 4:
E
She would never ask what the boy had done
But said she'd be his hostage if he needed one
A E
Her momma raised her to be loyal and true
B7
And she figured that's the least that she could do
Chorus 2:
A E
She was lost and lonely on a midnight ride
A E
Reluctant Bonnie to a poorman's Clyde
A E
It ain't too easy when the man you love
B7 E
Has got a reputation that's notorious
A E
It ain't too easy when the man you love
B7 E
Has got a reputation that's notorious
Verse 5:
E
They were just outside of Knoxville when the lights flashed on
And the siren's starting howling like hell houndogs
A E
Ray popped that Firebird into overdrive
B7
And swore he'd never let them take him alive
Chorus 3:
A E
He was a desperate rider, he was Jesse James
A E
The best that he'd ever hope for was a household name
A E
The morning papers didn't say too much
B7 E
But his obituairy read, notorious
A E
The caption by his picture didn't say too much
B7 E
But his obituairy read, notorious
A E
The caption by his picture didn't say too much
B7 E
But his obituairy read, notorious
