Intro:   A/////////
AWell I was cruisin' Texarkana,  in my Cadillac
We were giggin' Louisiana, and a comin' back
It was starting to get light, and I was really gone
I saw a flashin' in my mirror, he was movin' on
Chorus:            D  
        Hey Johnny Law, why you pickin' on me
        Hey Johnny ALaw, drivin' off my misery
        You got the biggest attitude I ever Esaw
        I bet you was wishin' I was guilty, Johnny ALaw
AStandin' by my cruiser, waitin' for your friends
Or you can sidle by later, maybe haul me in
Your pushin' me around, hopin' that I'll choke
And if you get your way, I'll be locked up and broke
Chorus:            D  
        Hey Johnny Law, why you pickin' on me
        Hey Johnny ALaw, drivin' off my misery
        You got the biggest attitude I ever Esaw
        I bet you was wishin' I was guilty, Johnny ALaw
AYou got everything lit up, for all the world to see
But you ain't found nothin' , so your settin' me free
Your makin' money,  puttin' fear in those oppressed
You ain't nothin' but a bully, with a star on your chest
Chorus:            D  
        Hey Johnny Law, why you pickin' on me
        Hey Johnny ALaw, drivin' off my misery
        You got the biggest attitude I ever Esaw
        I bet you was wishin' I was guilty, Johnny ALaw

Intro: /////////

Well I was cruisin' Texarkana, in my Cadillac

We were giggin' Louisiana, and a comin' back

It was starting to get light, and I was really gone

I saw a flashin' in my mirror, he was movin' on

Chorus:

Hey Johnny Law, why you pickin' on me

Hey Johnny Law, drivin' off my misery

You got the biggest attitude I ever saw

I bet you was wishin' I was guilty, Johnny Law

Standin' by my cruiser, waitin' for your friends

Or you can sidle by later, maybe haul me in

Your pushin' me around, hopin' that I'll choke

And if you get your way, I'll be locked up and broke

Chorus:

Hey Johnny Law, why you pickin' on me

Hey Johnny Law, drivin' off my misery

You got the biggest attitude I ever saw

I bet you was wishin' I was guilty, Johnny Law

You got everything lit up, for all the world to see

But you ain't found nothin' , so your settin' me free

Your makin' money, puttin' fear in those oppressed

You ain't nothin' but a bully, with a star on your chest

Chorus:

Hey Johnny Law, why you pickin' on me

Hey Johnny Law, drivin' off my misery

You got the biggest attitude I ever saw

I bet you was wishin' I was guilty, Johnny Law
