Against The Law
It's against the law to walk, and against the law to talk
Against the law to loaf, against the law to work
Against the law to read, against the law to write
Against the law to be a black, a brown, or white
Everything's against the law
I'm a low-pay daddy singing the high-price blues
It's against the law to eat, against the law to drink
Against the law to worry, against the law to think
Against the law to marry or try to settle down
Against the law to ramble like a bum from town to town
Everything's against the law
I'm a low-pay daddy singing the high-price blues
It's against the law to come, against the law to go
Against the law to ride, against the law to roll
Against the law to hug and against the law to kiss
Against the law to shoot, against the law to miss
Everything's against the law
I'm a low-pay daddy singing the high-price blues
It's against the law to gamble, against the law to roam
Against the law to organize or try to build a home
Against the law to sing, it's against the law to dance
Against the law to tell you all the trouble on my hands
Everything in Winston-Salem is against the law
I'm a low-pay daddy singing the high-price blues
Contra la ley
Es contra la ley caminar, y contra la ley hablar
Contra la ley holgazanear, contra la ley trabajar
Contra la ley leer, contra la ley escribir
Contra la ley ser negro, moreno o blanco
Todo está contra la ley
Soy un papá mal pagado cantando los blues del alto precio
Es contra la ley comer, contra la ley beber
Contra la ley preocuparse, contra la ley pensar
Contra la ley casarse o intentar establecerse
Contra la ley vagar como un vagabundo de pueblo en pueblo
Todo está contra la ley
Soy un papá mal pagado cantando los blues del alto precio
Es contra la ley venir, contra la ley ir
Contra la ley montar, contra la ley rodar
Contra la ley abrazar y contra la ley besar
Contra la ley disparar, contra la ley fallar
Todo está contra la ley
Soy un papá mal pagado cantando los blues del alto precio
Es contra la ley apostar, contra la ley vagar
Contra la ley organizar o intentar construir un hogar
Contra la ley cantar, es contra la ley bailar
Contra la ley contarte todos los problemas que tengo
Todo en Winston-Salem está contra la ley
Soy un papá mal pagado cantando los blues del alto precio
