[Intro]
G Em7 A Em7 A
A Am7 G
I love to see them straw dogs 'round my door,
D Am7 G
Come sneaking 'round my skirt tail looking for more,
D Am7
If you ain't running from the past,
Am7
You ain't making my heart beat fast,
F
You ain't chugging your paycheck,
D
You ain't hugging on my neck.
Am G
Well, I've been looking for trouble from the git,
D Am7 G
Them cowboys back where I come from won't quit,
D Am7
Cutting up tires on an oyster shell,
Am7
Siren screaming and he's running like hell,
F
Momma's on the front porch staring him down,
D
Ladies at the beauty shop coming unwound.
G D G
If the law don't want you, neither do I,
D
I ain't got no time to waste my shine,
Am7 C
On a puppet with a clip-on tie,
G D G
If the law don't want you, neither do I.
F
I hired that boy to cut my grass,
G
Nailed down a shingle but it couldn't get past,
F
Staring at the bottom of his low-slung pants,
D
Says he's gonna take me to the big buck dance,
G D G
If the law don't want you, neither do I.
[Break]
A F D
A Am7 G
I used to run wild down in Mexico,
D Am7 G
Hair jacked up and necklines plunging low,
D
Some snake hip shirt rip giving me lip,
Am7
Rifling my purse and stealing my tips,
F
There's something 'bout a man can affect that lean,
D
Keeping his hat all yanked down mean.
G D G
If the law don't want you, neither do I,
D
Play born to lose and you light my fuse,
Am7 C
I'm a sucker for a bald-faced lie,
G D G Em
If the law don't want you, neither do I,
G D F G F G
If the law don't want you, neither do I.
