Who sang",Philadelphia Lawyer"?!
Question: It is a Woody Guthrie composition. Rose Maddox and her brothers did a great job on it. Merle Haggard recorded the song as well. He has also done it as a duet with Willie Nelson. This is one of those good old songs with the ingredients of love, hate, murder and even a cowboy and a lawyer and a Hollywood maid. It don't get much more country than that.
