I Fought The Law (but The Law Beat The Shit Outta Me) Lyrics

It's a Saturday night
The police are trying to ruin my good time
They got no right, but it doesn't seem to matter cause it happens every time
I try to get close to you, instead I see those flashes of red and blue
There's nothing left to say but "oh no"
What am I supposed to do?
Cause I fought the law with all my might
I fought the law but I just could not win that fight Just like our founding fathers, I fought to be free
I fought the law, but the law beat the shit out of me
I hope that somebody is taping this and they play it on TV
A cable news expose on police brutality
Just like president Benjamin Franklin, I fought to be free
I fought the law, but the law beat the shit out of me
