I Fought The Law

A breakin' rocks in the hot sun I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I needed 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 the race is run
Cause he's the best man I ever had I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
[ guitar ]
A robbin' people with a sixgun I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I miss my baby and the good fun 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...
