LYRICS
Lady Liberty stands over our country
Blind justice, totally
When freedom is the cost
I fought the law, and the law lost
Make truth and justice the American way again
When the po-po does a no-no is what I’m sayin’
When freedom is the cost
I fought the law, and the law lost
Color the artist white or blacker
All musicians’ lives matter
When freedom is the cost
I fought the law, and the law lost
