I Fought The Law

(album: Family Tradition - 1978)

Breaking these rocks in the hot sun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

I wanted money cause I had none
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

I left my baby and I feel so bad, I guess my race is run
She was the best thing I ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

Holding up people with a six-gun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

I left my little baby good fun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

Yes, I've left my baby and I feel so bad
I guess my race is run
She was the best thing I ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

I've left my baby and I feel so bad
And I guess my race is run
She was the best thing I ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

I fought the law, the law won
I fought the law, the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
