[00:00:05] Billy Dalton staggered on the sidewalk

[00:00:10] Someone said he stumbled and he fell

[00:00:15] Six squad cars came screaming to the rescue

[00:00:20] Hauled ol' Billy Dalton off to jail

[00:00:24] 'Cos the law is for protection of the people

[00:00:29] Rules are rules and any fool can see

[00:00:34] We don't need no drunks like Billy Dalton

[00:00:39] Scaring decent folks like you and me

[00:00:44] No siree

[00:00:46] Homer Lee Honeycutt was nothing but a hippie

[00:00:52] Walking through this world without a care

[00:00:57] Then one day six strapping brave policeman

[00:01:02] Held down Homer Lee and cut his hair

[00:01:06] 'Cos the law is for protection of the people

[00:01:12] Rules are rules and any fool can see

[00:01:17] We don't need no hairy-headed hippies

[00:01:22] Scaring decent folks like you and me

[00:01:27] No siree

[00:01:29] So thank your lucky stars you got protection

[00:01:33] You got it

[00:01:35] Walk the line and never mind the cost

[00:01:40] Don't wonder who them lawmen was protecting

[00:01:45] When they nailed the saviour to the cross

[00:01:49] 'Cos the law is for protection of the people

[00:01:55] Rules are rules and any fool can see

[00:02:00] We don't need no riddle-speakin' prophets

[00:02:05] Scaring decent folks like you and me

[00:02:10] No siree
