Breakin' rocks in the hot sun
I fought the law and the, the law won
I fought the law and the, the law won

I needed money 'cause I had none
I fought the law and the, the law won
I fought the law and the, the law won

I left my baby and it feels so bad
That I guess my race is run
She's the best girl that I ever had
I fought the law and the, the law won
I fought the law and the

Robbin' people with a six-gun
I fought the law and the, the law won
I fought the law and the, the law won

I lost my girl and I lost the one
I fought the law and the, the law won
I fought the law and the, the law won

I left my baby and it feels so bad
That I guess my race is run
She's the best girl that I ever had
I fought the law and the, the law won
I fought the law and the
I fought the law and the, the law won
I fought the law and the, the law won
I fought the law and the, the law won
I fought the law and the, the law won

I fought the law and the, the law won
I fought the law and the, the law won
I fought the law and the, the law won
I fought the law and the
