I love this line:

What's the difference 'tween outlaws and in-laws?
Outlaws are wanted
Yeah, outlaws are wanted

I like the overall production and song structure...

Though I feel the chorus seems a little strange structurally...either like its one line too long or one line too short...?  Can't explain it....

I think that may have to do with the chord pattern under the sanity line...instead of following the same pattern of the first two lines, (D - A) it does a D- G- A -D, which feels like the natural resolution of the chorus...I might do something like

(D)
My daddy warned 'bout fast cars and whiskey
(D -A)                         
Mama warned 'bout the wrong kinda friends
(D)
Nobody warned 'bout marryin' into madness
(D - G)
'Cause that's where your sanity ends
(A)
What's the difference 'tween outlaws and in-laws?
(G - A(pause))
in the pause...Outlaws are wanted

to me it feels like there should be a longer pause before "outlaws are wanted"...(Not sure how much control you have over the chord structure btw)

These are just my opinion mind you....good song...enjoyed it!

Thanks for sharing!

Hi there

Everything was going well until the guitar solo, and then you just give up on her and start worrying about not being good enough and that she could easily find another guy.
I would suggest that you use verse three to write about how lucky you are, and what you are going to do for her to make her happy so that she never even thinks about going elsewhere.
Use six lines like you did for the previous verses, and dazzle her with your commitment to the relationship.
okay, you can start with "I don't know what she sees in me" but then how do you make yourself indispensible.

The only other suggestion is to put the pre-chorus and chorus together, as a chorus. You can still use the same chords but there is no sense in separating it like that as your pre-chorus is not setting up the chorus.
Anyway, that's just my take on it
i hope some of this is useful

Hi there

although some of the lines could be refined, the general appeal of the lyrics is because it reminds me of the Beverley Hillbillies, and I like the use of quotes from conversations, which sets it up well.

My main point for discussion is that, in the chorus, you don't actually answer the question you posed. "What's the difference between outlaws and in-laws?".
You could counterpose two answers.
So, if you had been talking about family and friends instead, you could start with something like "You can't choose your family, but you can choose your friends"
But in this case, it could be something like "You don't get to choose your in-laws, but I'd much rather be an outlaw" or something along those lines. It also maintains the slightly humourous line of the rest of the lyrics.
But it's just my opinion.
The song will bounce along without any changes just as well
