Standard (EADGBE)

Breaking 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 left my baby and I feel so sad I guess my race is run,

 Well she's the best girl that I ever had

I fought the law and the law won

I fought the law and the law won

Robbing 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 the good fun,

I fought the law and the law won

I fought the law and the law won

I left my baby and I feel so sad I guess my race is run,

 Well she's the best girl that I ever had

I fought the law and the law won

I fought the law and the law won
