[Verse 1]
[Em]Oh, [G]he said,
God, listen to me
Keep your hands off the apple tree
Even
[Em]Adam wondered why,
made some cider and gave it a try
[G]God came back and he made a row,
go and toil by the sweat if you row
The [Em]snake said, the hell with the daily bread,
he showed them how to do the latest dance instead
[C]And it's the old[Em] dance,
that's a crooked dance too
Step [G]outside [D]the law,
[Em]play the tune on your dandle [C]fiddle
It'll [Em]burn you [A]up like [G]straw[Em]
God [G]rode up in a big black car
Took a drag on a fat cigar
[Em]Break the law and you pay the price
Out you go from paradise
[G]He stuck a sign on every tree
This is private property
The [Em]snake's dead, property is dead
Never mind, there's always one thing [C]left
And that's the [Em]old dance,
as the crooked dance do
Step [G]outside the [D]law, [Em]play the tune
On your damned old [C]fiddle,
it'll [Em]burn you [A]up like [G]straw[Em][G][Em]
Oh, oh, it's the old dance
And the crooky dance too
Such a crooky dance to
[G]step outside [D]the law
[Em]Play the tune on your damned old [C]fiddle
It'll [Em]burn you up, burn you up like [A]straw
[G]God sends thunder,
God sends hail,
chills and spills and bills in the mail
[Em]Plagues on the sly and the innocent,
frogs and boils and the government
[G]Take your partners in this fight,
try to dance away to[Em]night
With your hands all round,
what'll you do when the sky fall[C]s down?
The [Em]old man has a crooked dance move,
Step [G]outside [D]the law,
[Em]Play the tune on your damned old [C]fiddle,
It'll [Em]burn you up [A]like [Bm]stone[Am][D][Em]
[G].[D][Em][C][Em][A]
[G][Em]
[G][Em]
Oh, do the old man and the
crooked dance do
Step [G]outside and [D]all play [Em]the tune
Walk you down the old [C]middle,
it'll [Em]burn you [C]up
It'll [Em]burn you [C]up
[Am]It'll [Em]burn you [C]up
It'll [Em]burn you [C]up
It'll [Em]burn you up
Burn you up
It'll [C]burn you up
[Am]Burn you [C]up
It'll [Em]burn you up
Burn you up
It'll [C]burn you up [Am]like stone

[Outro 1]
