<h2>The unwritten law</h2>

<font size="2">Words &amp; music by Ritchie Blackmore, Ian Gillan, Roger Glover and Ian Paice</font>

<p>
Listen to me, i've got a warning for you, you've got to learn to take more care<br>
'Cos if you swim in dirty water be careful how you dry your hair<br>
In a room within a room, in a hole within a hole<br>
You've got to learn to share your secrets or you'll lose your soul<br>
I've got the evidence<br>
I know you broke the unwritten law<br>
Another town, another one night stand<br>
You know you broke the law<br>
<p>
It's so hard to hold back when the fire's in your eyes<br>
A silver dollar in my pocket uh don't like surprises<br>
I've got your souvenir - Is that the price I've got to pay?<br>
It ain't been that long since the last charade<br>
I've got the evidence<br>
I know you broke the unwritten law<br>
Another town, another one night stand<br>
You know you broke the law<br>
<p>
I know you're guilty but I'm carrying the blame<br>
I took out much more than I put in<br>
Felt the pain in a dirty little room with nowhere left to hide<br>
You told the truth with your eyes but you lied inside<br>
I've got the evidence<br>
I know you broke the unwritten law<br>
Another town, another one night stand<br>
You know you broke the law<br>
<p>
I've got the evidence<br>
I know you broke the unwritten law<br>
Another town, another one night stand<br>
You know you broke the law<br>
<p>
