  6     -5      4 
Law’d, Law’d, Law’d

 6   6    5-5*-5  5  3  
I'm goin' a-way, ba-by,  
6   6   -5   5    3  -3*

  6      -5     5
Law’d, Law’d, Law’d 
 -3   5 -5   5  -5  
Goin' a-way, ba-by,  
  -3  -5  5    -3    3
won't be back till fall  
6  6   6  -5-5  -4   3
If I find me a good man,  
  6   6    3  -3  5
won't be back at all  

I'm gonna buy me a pistol,  
just as long as I am tall,  
Law’d, Law’d, Law’d 
Shoot my man, and catch a cannonball  
If he won't have me, 
he won't have no gal at all  

See See Rider,  
where did you stay last night?  
Law’d, Law’d, Law’d 
Your shoes ain't buttoned  
and your clothes don't fit you right  
You didn't come home  
till the sun was shining bright
