That's The Law

Words & Music by Jim Bows
  

My baby told me monday that she wants it all
Her lawyer called me tuesday, said I got no choice
'Cos that's the law, that's the law
She wants it all, and that's the law
She used to be my baby now all she says is pay me
That's the law

So I got me a lawyer, paid him his due
He just shook his head and said there's nothing I can do
'Cos that's the law, that's the law
She gets it all, and that's the law
She used to be my baby now all she says is pay me
That's the law

The judge told me straight up I ain't got no rights
Now I'm just a poor man with a rich ex-wife
'Cos thats the law, that's the law
She gets it all, and that's the law
She used to be my baby now all she says is pay me
That's the law

Now I'm standing on the corner with a belly full of blues
When you lose it all you've got nothing left to lose
'Cos thats the law, that's the law
She got it all, and that's the law
She used to be my baby now all she says is pay me
That's the law

'Cos that's the law, that's the law
She used to be my baby now all she says is pay me
That's the law, that's the law, that's the law, that's the law
