The Law Is for the Protection of the People (Live at the Philharmonic) - Kris Kristofferson
Written by：Kris Kristofferson

Billy Dalton staggered on the sidewalk

Someone said he stumbled and he fell

Six squad cars came screaming to the rescue

Hauled ol' Billy Dalton off to jail

'Cos the law is for protection of the people

Rules are rules and any fool can see

We don't need no drunks like Billy Dalton

Scaring decent folks like you and me

No siree
Homer Lee Honeycutt was nothing but a hippie

Walking through this world without a care

Then one day six strapping brave policeman

Held down Homer Lee and cut his hair

'Cos the law is for protection of the people

Rules are rules and any fool can see

We don't need no hairy-headed hippies

Scaring decent folks like you and me

No siree
So thank your lucky stars you got protection

You got it

Walk the line and never mind the cost

Don't wonder who them lawmen was protecting

When they nailed the saviour to the cross

'Cos the law is for protection of the people

Rules are rules and any fool can see

We don't need no riddle-speakin' prophets

Scaring decent folks like you and me

No siree
