Nanci Griffith - I Fought The Law lyrics

(Sonny Curtis)

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 and I had none

I fought the law and the law won

I fought the law and the lawn won

I left my baby and I feel so bad

I guess my race is run

She's the best girl that I ever had

I fought the law and the law won

I fought the law and the law won

Robbin' people with a zip gun

I fought the law and the law won

I fought the law and the law won

I miss my baby and good fun

I fought the law and the law won

I fought the law and the law won

Left my bay and I feel so bad

I guess my race is run

She's the best girl that I ever had

I fought the law and the law won

I fought the law and the law won
