More Fun Than the Law Allows

Words and Music by Hugh Prestwood

We were playin' music

We were dancin' slow

Everything is cheek to cheek and toe to toe

When our inhibitions got real unsuppressed

We danced around in the living room like souls possessed

We just begun

When the night was done

And we had more fun than the law allows

We had more fun than the law allows

First thing next morning

The sheriff's at the door

He said, "You two are the ones I got this

Warrant for!"

Last night your friends and neighbors all called in

'Cause around here that much amusement is a sin

And you best not run

I can use this gun

And you've had more fun than the law allows

And you've had more fun than the law allows

The prosecutor told us,

"You better say your prayers!"

'Cause this here judge is famous for the

Frown he wears

The one thing you can't deify is levity

And you're both charged with carousing

In the first degree

You might still be young

When your time is done

But you had more fun than the law allows

But you had more fun than the law allows

You had more fun than the law allows

But you had more fun than the law allows

You had more fun than the law allows

We had more fun than the law allows
