Drinkin' beer in the hot sun
I fought the law and
I won
I fought the law and
I won

I needed sex and I got mine
I fought the law and
I won
I fought the law and
I won

The law don't mean shit 
If you got the right friends
That's how this county's run
Twinkies are the best friend I ever had

I fought the law and
I won
I fought the law and
I won

I blew George and Harvey's brains out with my
Six gun!
I fought the law and
I won
I fought the law and
I won

Gonna write my book and make a million
I fought the law and
I won
I fought the law and
I won

I'm the new folk hero of the Ku Klux Klan
My cop friend thinks it's fun
You can get away with murder if you got a badge

I fought the law and
I won
I fought the law and
I won
I fought the law and
I won
I AM the law so I won
