If The Law Don't Want You Lyrics - Norah Jones

1 I love to see them straw dogs 'round my door

2 Come sneaking 'round my skirt tail looking for more

3 If you ain't running from the past

4 You ain't making my heart beat fast

5 You ain't chugging your paycheck

6 You ain't hugging on my neck

7 Well, I've been looking for trouble from the git

8 Them cowboys back where I come from won't quit

9 Cutting up tires on an oyster shell

10 Siren screaming and he's running like hell

11 Momma's on the front porch staring him down

12 Ladies at the beauty shop coming unwound

13 If the law don't want you, neither do I

14 I ain't got no time to waste my shine

15 On a puppet with a clip-on tie

16 If the law don't want you, neither do I

17 I hired that boy to cut my grass

18 Nailed down a shingle but it couldn't get past

19 Staring at the bottom of his low-slung pants

20 Says he's gonna take me to the big buck dance

21 If the law don't want you, neither do I

22 I used to run wild down in Mexico

23 Hair jacked up and necklines plunging low

24 Some snake hip shirt rip giving me lip

25 Rifling my purse and stealing my tips

26 There's something 'bout a man can affect that lean

27 Keeping his hat all yanked down mean

28 If the law don't want you, neither do I

29 Play born to lose and you light my fuse

30 I'm a sucker for a bald-faced lie
