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 it feels so bad
I guess my race is run
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

Robbing 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-a good 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
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
