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

    Robin' 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 miss my fun
    I fought the law and the law won
    I fought the law and the law won

    I miss my baby and I feel so sad
    I guess my race is run
    Why she's the best girl that I ever had
    I fought the law and the law won
    I fought the law and the

    I fought the law and the law won [x7]
    I fought the law and the
