Woody Guthrie Aginst Th' Law
ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to walk, ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to talk
ItÂ's against thÂ' law to loaf, ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to work
ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to read, ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to write
ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to be a black or brown or white.
EverÂ'thing's aginst thÂ' law
IÂ'm a low pay daddy singing thÂ' high price blues
ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to eat, ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to drink
ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to worry, ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to think
ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to marry or to try to settle down
ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to ramble like a bum from town to town
EverÂ'thing's aginst thÂ' law
IÂ'm a low pay daddy singing thÂ' high price blues
ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to come, ItÂ's against thÂ' law to go
ItÂ's against thÂ' law to ride, ItÂ's against thÂ' law to roll
ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to hug, ItÂ's against thÂ' law to kiss
ItÂ's against thÂ' law to shoot, ItÂ's against thÂ' law to miss
EverÂ'thing's aginst thÂ' law
IÂ'm a low pay daddy singing thÂ' high price blues
ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to gamble, ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to roam
ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to organize or try to build a home
ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to sing, ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to dance
ItÂ's aginst thÂ' law to tell you thÂ' trouble on my hands
Ever'thing in Winston Salem is aginst th' law
I'ma low pay daddy singin' th' high price blues.
