*spoken* This is life in this world
|
Some things go right
|
Some things go wrong
|
It's just how the world can be
|
People just want to be free
|
Yeah...
|
|
The verdict came in and it said I was guilty
|
I looked at the judge "Hey America built me"
|
Tried to get rich but they label me filthy
|
Only God can judge me, touch me feel me...
|
|
My friend calls me at 9 o'clock
|
Says "Get the car it's time to rock"
|
Never heard him speak this way
|
I grab the keys and hit the road
|
It's all a flash but who would know
|
How the story would unfold
|
|
Don't charge me for the crime
|
Wrong place, wrong time
|
Don't charge me for the crime
|
Wrong place, wrong time
|
Don't charge me for the crime
|
|
My friend gets in the car with bags
|
Filled to the top with loads of cash
|
And throws his pistol on the dash
|
Says "I'm sorry for the crime
|
That I've involved you in this time
|
You're the only friend I've got"
|
|
Don't charge me for the crime
|
Wrong place, wrong time
|
Don't charge me for the crime
|
Wrong place, wrong time
|
Don't charge me for the crime
|
|
I start to freak and scream so loud
|
Just like the females in the crowd
|
That's when he gets in my head
|
You could live just like a king
|
With everything you'd ever need
|
All the dreams of every man
|
|
Don't charge me for the crime
|
Wrong place, wrong time
|
Don't charge me for the crime
|
Wrong place, wrong time
|
Don't charge me...
|
|
Siren sound and my heart was poundin'
|
I looked at my man as the cops surround him
|
A teen on the scene with no objective
|
The American dream can be so deceptive
|
|
Now i see the flashing lights
|
There goes my future and my life
|
Now I've got to do what's right
|
I stop the car and throw the keys
|
Out of the window sets me free
|
I throw the pistol in the back
|
|
Throws me out of the car
|
You know me well
|
I'm not going to jail
|
I'm not paying your bail
|
Believe me when I say
|
They won't charge me for the crime
|
|
Wrong place, wrong time
|
Don't charge me for the crime
|
Wrong place, wrong time
|
Don't charge me for the crime
|
Wrong place
|
Wrong time
|
Wrong place
|
Don't charge me for the crime
|
