Playin' to Win is the fourth album by American southern rock band Outlaws, released in 1978. The album was their first studio project with guitarist/singer/songwriter Freddie Salem. Salem had replaced founding member/guitarist/singer/songwriter Henry Paul, who had acted as the second frontman behind Hughie Thomasson. It was not as well-received as their previous three albums. Notwithstanding, it still featured half of the original lineup, which would remain until the departure of guitarist Billy Jones in 1981.
