Oh lord, anybody see my trial grieves for I
Why lord?
I was badly beaten, found by loved ones
Battered by an irate husband
Searching for a man that wasn't I
When we reached the court, we gone inside
The hand of justice shall preside
Over this case, the trial shall begin
Your Honour I was inside the closet
Minding I and I own business
Your Honour, it was a complete stranger
Causing these disturbances
Him claims of me touching him wife
Which is a wicked and awful lie
Me two hands 'em was occupied
Me shirt's in me left, and me pants in me right
Me hand 'em was occupied
Me shirt's in me left, and me pants in me right
Dear Judge, can this court accept my story from me heart?
Why Judge, if by chance you don't believe this tale
Ask him why she will not fail to agree I was a better man than he
Just in case she refuse to answer, ask the maid, downstairs, Agatha
She gonna be glad to testify for me
I tell him
Your Honour, I was inside the closet
Mindin' I and I own business
Your Honour, it was a complete stranger
Causing these disturbances
Him claims I'm a touching him wife
Which is a wicked and awful lie
Me two hand 'em was occupied
Me shirt's in me left, and me pants in me right
Me hand 'em was occupied
Me shirt's in me left, and me pants in me right
Silence, silence
Specifically, I man do not understand what the man is trying to say
Roots, forward up
Dear corporal, as you lock me in this prison, pray for I
Please corporal, please don't leave me here to wonder
Why the court has made this blunder
Grabbed me for a crime that wasn't fair?
Corporal, when you goin' to send me dinner
Send your mother or your sister
One more day of this, I cannot bear
Hear me now
Your Honour I was inside the closet
Minding I and I own business
Your Honour, it was a complete stranger
Causing these disturbances
Him claims of me touching him wife
Which is a wicked and awful lie
Me two hands 'em was occupied
Me shirt's in me left, and me pants in me right
Me hand 'em was occupied
Me shirt's in me left, and me pants in me right
Your Honour, I was inside the closet...
