THE LAW GONNA STEP ON YOU
(Bo Carter)

I done told ya, told you, I told you too
Quit a-havin' liquor and gamblin' too
A-look-a here baby, you goin' to fast
The law gonna step on ya
Yes, yes, yes

Now you can twist, you can twist, you can step on his tail
You goin' need somebody to go your bail
A-look-a here baby, you goin' to fast
The law gonna step on ya
Yes, yes, yes

Now you may think that you doin' you wrong
But they'll send ya to the county farm
A-look-a here baby, you goin' to fast
The law gonna step on ya

Now if you want to leave from home
Lump around with a boll* of corn
A-look-a here baby, you trav'lin' to fast
The law gonna step on ya, yes, yes, yes

I done told ya, told you, like a friend
'Stead-a draw your business' end
A-look-a here baby, you goin' to fast
The law gonna step on ya, yes, yes, yes
