WOODY GUTHRIE - AGINST TH' LAW lyrics

rate me

It´s aginst th´ law to walk, It´s aginst th´ law to talk

It´s against th´ law to loaf, It´s aginst th´ law to work

It´s aginst th´ law to read, It´s aginst th´ law to write

It´s aginst th´ law to be a black or brown or white.

Ever´thing's aginst th´ law

I´m a low pay daddy singing th´ high price blues

It´s aginst th´ law to eat, It´s aginst th´ law to drink

It´s aginst th´ law to worry, It´s aginst th´ law to think

It´s aginst th´ law to marry or to try to settle down

It´s aginst th´ law to ramble like a bum from town to town

Ever´thing's aginst th´ law

I´m a low pay daddy singing th´ high price blues

It´s aginst th´ law to come, It´s against th´ law to go

It´s against th´ law to ride, It´s against th´ law to roll

It´s aginst th´ law to hug, It´s against th´ law to kiss

It´s against th´ law to shoot, It´s against th´ law to miss

Ever´thing's aginst th´ law

I´m a low pay daddy singing th´ high price blues

It´s aginst th´ law to gamble, It´s aginst th´ law to roam

It´s aginst th´ law to organize or try to build a home

It´s aginst th´ law to sing, It´s aginst th´ law to dance

It´s aginst th´ law to tell you th´ trouble on my hands

Ever'thing in Winston Salem is aginst th' law

I'ma low pay daddy singin' th' high price blues.
