Norah Jones - If The Law Don't Want You lyrics

I love to see them straw dogs 'round my door Come sneaking 'round my skirt tail looking for more If you ain't running from the past You ain't making my heart beat fast You ain't chugging your paycheck You ain't hugging on my neck Well, I've been looking for trouble from the git Them cowboys back where I come from won't quit Cutting up tires on an oyster shell Siren screaming and he's running like hell Momma's on the front porch staring him down Ladies at the beauty shop coming unwound If the law don't want you, neither do I I ain't got no time to waste my shine On a puppet with a clip-on tie If the law don't want you, neither do I I hired that boy to cut my gra** Nailed down a shingle but it couldn't get past Staring at the bottom of his low-slung pants Says he's gonna take me to the big buck dance If the law don't want you, neither do I I used to run wild down in Mexico Hair jacked up and necklines plunging low Some snake hip shirt rip giving me lip Rifling my purse and stealing my tips There's something 'bout a man can affect that lean Keeping his hat all yanked down mean If the law don't want you, neither do I Play born to lose and you light my fuse I'm a s**er for a bald-faced lie
