The Law Is for Protection of the People - Bobby Bare[00:00:00]
Billy Dalton staggered on the sidewalk[00:00:08]
Someone said he stumbled and he fell[00:00:13]
Six squad cars came screamin' to the rescue[00:00:18]
Hauled old Billy Dalton off to jail [00:00:23]
'Cause the law is for protection of the people[00:00:28]
Rules're rules and any fool can see[00:00:33]
We don't need no tramps like Billy Dalton[00:00:38]
Scaring decent folks like you and me [00:00:44]
No siree [00:00:48]
Charlie Watson wandered like a stranger[00:00:51]
Showin' he had no means of support[00:00:57]
Policeman took a look at Charlie's pants cuffs[00:01:02]
Hustled Charlie Watson off to court [00:01:07]
'Cause the law is for protection of the people[00:01:12]
Rules're rules and any fool can see[00:01:17]
We don't need no bums like Charlie Watson[00:01:23]
Scaring decent folks like you and me [00:01:28]
No siree [00:01:32]
Homer Lee was nothing but a hippie[00:01:36]
Walking through this world without a care[00:01:41]
Then one day six strapping brave policemen[00:01:46]
Held down Homer Lee and cut his hair [00:01:51]
'Cause the law is for protection of the people[00:01:56]
Rules're rules and any fool can see[00:02:01]
We don't need no hairy headed hippie[00:02:07]
Scaring decent folks like you and me [00:02:12]
No siree [00:02:16]
So thank your lucky stars you've got protection[00:02:19]
Walk the line and never mind the cost[00:02:25]
And don't wonder who them lawmen were protecting[00:02:29]
When they nailed the Saviour to the cross [00:02:35]
'Cause the law is for protection of the people[00:02:39]
Rules're rules and any fool can see[00:02:45]
We don't need no little sneaking prophets[00:02:50]
Scaring decent folks like you and me [00:02:55]
No siree[00:03:00]
