Nanci Griffith - I Fought the Law Lyrics

Sonny Curtis
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 and I had none
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

[Chorus]
Left my baby and I feel so bad
I guess my race is run

She's the best thing that I ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
Robbin' people with a zip gun

I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I miss my baby and good fun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

[Chorus]
Left my baby and I feel so bad
I guess my race is run

She's the best thing that I've ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
