Streetlights glare but nothing's clear
And Robin Hood, he doesn't live round here
Johnny Law is in the rearview and it's no good
He's gonna get us now, and it's understood
And I want to know what the answer should be
Flashing lights in my mind -- true sounds of liberty
Who is the promise for? It seems so far away
No matter where I go
I just can't get away
And in the burning sun
There's someone on the run
We'll wave the black flag
We'll wave it right there in his face
Johnny Law is here today
And it echoes here
Streets of America
He's gonna get you here --
Streets of America
Who is the promise for?
It seems so far away
Between the bad guys and the badge
Don't go alone today
And in the D.C. sun,
there's someone on the run
We'll wave the black flag
Salute the one that got away
From Johnny Law
Let's get away from Johnny Law
He wears a hundred faces
And hides in so many places
He'll cut you down to size
Say your rosary tonight
All over Detroit, down to south L.A.
From a Dixie town to a Capitol parade
Let's get away from Johnny Law
