I'm 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 sad

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

Robbin' people with a six-gun

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 sad

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
