Aginst Th’ Law Lyrics by Woody Guthrie

0

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
