Law Is For Protection Kris Kristofferson
[A] Billy Dalton sta[G]ggered on the s[A]idewalk
Someone said he st[G]umbled and he f[A]ell
Six squad cars came scr[G]eamin' to the res[A]cue
Hauled ol' Billy D[G]alton off to j[A]ail
Chorus:
[A] 'Cause the l[D]aw is for prot[A]ection of the p[D]eople
Rules are rules and [A]any fool can s[D]ee
We don't need no d[C/G]runks like Billy D[D]alton
S[Bm/]caring decent folks like you and m[E]e,no siree
Verse 3:
[A] Homer Lee Honeycutt was n[G]othin' but a h[A]ippie
Walking through his w[G]orld without a c[A]are
Then one day six str[G]apping brave pol[A]iceman
Held down Homer L[G]ee and cut his h[A]air
Chorus bis:
[A] 'Cause the l[D]aw is for prot[A]ection of the p[D]eople
Rules are rules and [A]any fool can s[D]ee
We don't need no h[C/G]airy headed h[D]ippies
S[Bm/]caring decent folks like you and m[E]e,no siree
Verse 5:
[A] So thank your lucky st[G]ars you got prot[A]ection
Walk the line and n[G]ever mind the c[A]ost
Don't wonder who them l[G]awmen was prot[A]ectin'
When they nailed the s[G]avior to the cr[A]oss
Chorus ter:
[A] 'Cause the l[D]aw is for prot[A]ection of the p[D]eople
Rules are rules and [A]any fool can s[D]ee
We don't need no r[C/G]iddle speakin' pr[D]ophets
S[Bm/]caring decent folks like you and m[E]e,no siree
