[Verse 1]
Breakin' rocks in the hot sun
I fought the law and the law won [x2]
[Verse 2]
I left my baby and my good fun
I fought the law and the law won [x2]
[Chorus]
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 [x2]
[Verse 3]
Robbin' people with a big gun
I fought the law and the law won [x2]
[Verse 4]
I needed money, but I had none
I fought the law and the law won [x2]
[Chorus]
