Thread Name: Songs About Lawyers or the Law
Subject: RE: Songs About Lawyers or the Law
The Beers Family recorded a song called, I believe, "A Farmer Boy For Me," in which the girl compares her lad of the land to various less attractive professionals. One verse runs,

"I would not marry a lawyer man;
He tells too many lies.
I'd rather work with my farmer boy
Beneath the open skies."

Sorry 'bout that!

(P.S. -- I edit law books in my spare time; bless you all....)
