I'm for law and order The way that it should be This song's about the night they spent Protecting you from me Someone called us outlaws In some old magazine New York sent a posse down Like I ain't never seen Don't you think this outlaw shit Has gotten out of hand? What started out to be a joke The law don't understand Was it singing through my nose That got me busted by the man? This ain't it, this outlaw shit Has gotten out of hand Out of hand We were wrapped up in the music That's why we never saw The cars pull up, the boys get out And the room fill up with law They came pounding through the back door In the middle of my song They got me for possession Of something that was long gone Don't you think this outlaw shit Has gotten out of hand? What started out to be a joke The law don't understand Was it singing through my nose That got me busted by the man? This ain't it, this outlaw shit Has gotten out of hand Out of hand
