Law Dogs

Law Dogs

Words and Music by

Tom Johnston

Know a little girl she drives me mad

She loves her outlaw but he don't love back

I feel bad 'cause she can stay clean

The future looks bad tell you what I see

Four black horses and a memory

Makin' money lyin' in bed

Listen to the voices that are in her head

Main Street's dirty and the mud is dank

With her no good lover in front of the bank

Gonna take all the money and leave this town

But the law dogs gonna track 'em down

When mornin' comes she hangs her head

Sittin' there smokin' a cigarette

Her skin is pale sittin' in jail

Hopin' someone will set her free

Explosions have rocked the jail

And all the sirens they start to wail

The man in the duster he runs inside

To grab that girl and take her for a ride

Police running all over the place

They lost that girl it's a big disgrace, yeah

Gonna run but you sho can't hide

Yeah, Law dogs

Gonna run now baby

She's a crazy little thing, yeah

Gonna run, baby is sho gonna hide
