Billy Dalton staggered on the sidewalk someone said he stumbled and he fell
|
Six squad cars came screamin' to the rescue hauled old Billy Dalton off to jail
|
Cause the law is for protection of the people rules're rules and any fool can see
|
We don't need no drunks like Billy Dalton scaring decent folks like you and me no siree
|
Homar Lee was nothing but a hippie walkin' through this world without a care
|
Then one day six scrapping brave policemen held down Homar Lee and cut his hair
|
Cause the law is for protection of the people rules're rules and any fool can see
|
We don't need no hairy headed hippies scaring decent folks like you and me no siree
|
Oh so thank your lucky stars we've got protection
|
Walk the line and never mind the cost
|
And no wonder who them lawmen were protecting
|
When they nailed the Saviour to the cross
|
Cause the law is for protection of the people rules're rules and any fool can see
|
We don't need no riddle speaking prophets
|
Scaring decent folks like you and me no siree
