garnet rogers - break the law lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i was a farmer in the rocks, bruce county
i was plowing when the letter came
some bullsh+t banker down in toronto
money owns the farm, it was all the same

[verse 2]
it was the land that i bought with my brother
we lost him years ago in vietnam
and i believe that he died for freedom
he believed he was the chosen man

[verse 3]
we had a meeting in the schoolhouse in mildmay
ian mccluskey and the dawson boys
they all had farms, they all got letters
it was mccluskey who made all thе noise

[chorus]
he said break thе law
ain’t nothing you can do
he said
break the law
when the world lies to you
break the law
or the law breaks you
[verse 4]
i heard their words, i was angry
i was leaning but i had my doubts
up from the back stood old george mckenzie
he was ninety five or thereabouts

[verse 5]
he said there weren’t no lawyers, no bay street bankers
stood beside me with my horse and plough
and i’ll be godd+mned or even irish
some son of a b+tch is gonna rob me now

[chorus]
so break the law
ain’t nothing you can do
he said
break the law
when the world lies to you
break the law
before the law breaks you

[verse 6]
four in the morning, cattle nervous
eleanor sleeping, she don’t understand
i’ve got my parker, i’ve got my rifle
kitchen curtain moves, i see her hand
[verse 7]
the sun is rising, my heart is breaking
im in the cab warming up the truck
the door it opens, she’s got her coat on
a cup of coffee with her words “good luck”

[chorus]
she says break the law
ain’t nothing you can do
she said
break the law
when the world lies to you
break the law
before the law breaks you
