Nanci Griffith - I Fought the Law Lyrics

Send "I Fought the Law" Ringtone to your Cell

Songwriters: 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

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

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

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

Send "I Fought the Law" Ringtone to your Cell
