Christie - Witness For The Prosecution

Текст песни

Well, I was standing on the corner
In the middle of the street, yeh
Well, I was minding my own business
Trying to be discreet, yeh
Too much time on my hands
Too much wine, one-night stands
I was looking for some easy action
Being bored to the point of distraction
When suddenly I saw a man
With a shotgun in his hands
Running out of the bank
Now I’m a witness for the prosecution
I’m a witness for the prosecution
I’m a witness for the prosecution
Swear by almighty God
That the evidence I will give
Will be the truth, the whole truth
And nothing but the truth
I’m a witness for the prosecution
I’m a witness for the prosecution
I’m a witness for the prosecution
Sure looks like a mess
How did I get into this
I didn’t want to get involved
I’m just a humble city dude, yeh
But the cop was so persuasive
I just could not refuse, yeh
«Listen son,"said a voice
«Testify, you got no choice»
I didn’t want no aggravation
So I accepted the situation
He said you’re making a mistake
If you don’t cooperate
You better not change your mind
Now I’m a witness for the prosecution
I’m a witness for the prosecution
I’m a witness for the prosecution
Swear by almighty God
That the evidence I will give
Will be the truth, the whole truth
And nothing but the truth
I’m a witness for the prosecution
I’m a witness for the prosecution
I’m a witness for the prosecution
Sure looks like a mess
How did I get into this
