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 miss my baby and I feel so bad,
I guess my race is run.
She's the best girl I 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 I feel so bad,
I guess my race is run.
She's the best girl I ever had,
I fought the law and the law won.
I fought the law and the law won.

I fought the law and the law won.
I fought the law and the law won.
