	Billy Dalton staggered on the sidewalk
                          G              A 
	Someone said he stumbled and he fell
                               G                A  
	Six squad cars came screamin' to the rescue

                            A             D 
	Rules are rules and any fool can see
                          C/G               D  
	We don't need no drunks like Billy Dalton

      A                          G             A  
	Homer Lee Honeycutt was nothin' but a hippie
                             G               A
	Walking through his world without a care
                            G               A 
	Then one day six strapping brave policeman
                         G               A  
	Held down Homer Lee and cut his hair

                           G              A
	Walk the line and never mind the cost
                               G             A 
	Don't wonder who them lawmen was protectin'
                              G              A
	When they nailed the savior to the cross

                          C/G              D    
	We don't need no riddle speakin' prophets
         Bm/                               E 
	Scaring decent folks like you and me,no siree
