Rodney Crowell - If the law dont want you

^AI love to see them ^Am7straw dogs 'round my ^Gdoor, Come ^Dsneaking 'round my ^Am7skirt tail looking for ^Gmore, If you ^Dain't running ^Am7from the past, ^Am7You ain't making my heart beat fast, You ^Fain't chugging your paycheck, You ^Dain't hugging on my neck.

Well, ^AmI've been looking for trouble from the ^Ggit, Them ^Dcowboys back where I ^Am7come from won't ^Gquit, ^DCutting up tires on an oyster ^Am7shell, ^Am7Siren screaming and he's running like hell, ^FMomma's on the front porch staring him down, ^DLadies at the beauty shop coming unwound.

If the ^Glaw don't ^Dwant you, neither do ^GI, I ain't ^Dgot no time to waste my shine, On a ^Am7puppet with a clip-on ^Ctie, If the ^Glaw don't ^Dwant you, neither do ^GI.

I ^Fhired that boy to cut my grass, ^GNailed down a shingle but it couldn't get past, ^FStaring at the bottom of his low-slung pants, ^DSays he's gonna take me to the big buck dance, If the ^Glaw don't want ^Dyou, neither do ^GI.

I ^Aused to run wild ^Am7down in ^GMexico, Hair ^Djacked up and ^Am7necklines plunging ^Glow, Some ^Dsnake hip shirt rip giving me lip, ^Am7Rifling my purse and stealing my tips, There's ^Fsomething 'bout a man can affect that lean, ^DKeeping his hat all yanked down mean.

If the ^Glaw don't ^Dwant you, neither do ^GI, Play born to lose and you ^Dlight my fuse, I'm a ^Am7sucker for a bald-faced ^Clie, If the ^Glaw don't ^Dwant you, neither do ^GI,^Em If the ^Glaw don't ^Dwant you, neither do ^FI.^{G F G}
