Lingua: Italiano
They got me 'cused for murder and I haven't even harmed a man (1)
They got me 'cused for murder but I haven't even harmed a man
They got me charged with burglin' and I haven't even raised my hand
The judge won't give me no fine
The judge won't give me no fine
Ain't but one thing could release me and that's so far beside
I'll have to give you my number, 5994
I'll have to give your my number, 5994
Because I'll be there forever, I've have no other place to go
They got me 'cused for forging and I can't even write my name (2)
Well they got me 'cused of forging and I can't even write my name
And my eyes still don't miss, my baby left my poor heart in pain
My baby left my heart in pain
They got me 'cused for murder but I haven't even harmed a man
They got me charged with burglin' and I haven't even raised my hand
The judge won't give me no fine
The judge won't give me no fine
Ain't but one thing could release me and that's so far beside
I'll have to give you my number, 5994
I'll have to give your my number, 5994
Because I'll be there forever, I've have no other place to go
They got me 'cused for forging and I can't even write my name (2)
Well they got me 'cused of forging and I can't even write my name
And my eyes still don't miss, my baby left my poor heart in pain
My baby left my heart in pain
