Lyrics:

A-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
Well, I left my baby and I feel so bad
I guess my race is run
Well, she's the best girl that I've ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

A-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 a good fun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
Well, I left my baby and I feel so bad
I guess my race is run
Well, she's the best girl that I've ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
