The Law Is for the Protection of the People (Live from RCA Studios 1972)

歌詞

"Billy Dalton staggered on the sidewalk Someone said he stumbled and he fell, Six squad cars came screaming to the rescue And hauled ol' Billy Dalton off to jail. Because the law is for protection of the people Rules are rules and any fool can see, We don't need no drunks like Billy Dalton Scaring decent folks like you 'n me' No Sireee Lee Honeycut was nothin' but a hippy Walking through this world without a care, Then one day six strappin' brave policemen Held down Homer Lee and cut his hair, Because the law is for protection of the people Rules are rules and any fool can see, We don't need no hairy headed hippies Scarin' decent folks like you 'n me No Sireee So thank your lucky stars you got protection Walk the line and never mind the cost Don't wonder who them lawmen was protectin' When they nailed the saviour to the cross. Because the law is for protection of the people Rules are rules and any fool can see, We don't need riddle speakin' prophets Scarin' decent folks like you 'n me No Sireee "
