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 my race is run
Well, she's the best girl, I've 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 lost baby and I lost my fun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I left my baby and it feels so bad
I guess my race is run
But she's the best girl, I've ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
