I Fought the Law |
| By Nanci Griffith |
| Chorus: |
| Oh I wish it would rain and wash my face clean |
| I want to find some dark cloud to hide in here |
| Oh love and a memory sparkle like diamonds |
| When the diamonds fall they burn like tears |
| When the diamonds fall they burn like tears |
| Once I had a love from the Georgia Pans who only cared for me |
| I want to find that love of 22 here at 33 |
| I’ve got a heart on my right and one on my left |
| And neither suits my needs |
| No the one I love is way out west and he never will need me |
| I’m gonna pack up my two-step shoes and head for the Gulf Coast plains |
| I want to walk the streets of my own home town where everybody knows my name |
| I want to ride a ways down to Galveston when the hurricanes blow in |
| Cause that Gulf Coast water tastes as sweet as wine |
| when your heart’s rolling home in the wind |
