I was minding my own business when you came in dressed to kill
I knew right then I was in trouble, but not on my own free will
Now I have to say in my defense, I ain't done nothing wrong
Your circumstantial evidence is all you got me on
I was just an innocent bystander, caught up in love
And since when was that a crime?
And say it now
And say it now

All I'm wanting you is slander, and you're all I'm thinking of
But now I'm glad you do my time
There's no joke, they're right in mind, we'll convict someone like me
Cause the way you walk, the way you talk, I complete insanity
But I'm prepared to tell the whole truth now, I don't need no alibi
But you just put me on that witness stand, and I will testify
I was just an innocent bystander, caught up in love
And since when was that a crime?
And saying that I'm wanting you is slander, and you're all I'm thinking of
I'll gladly do my time
I was just an innocent bystander, caught up in love
And since when was that a crime?
And saying that I'm wanting you is slander, and you're all I'm thinking of
And now I'll gladly do my time
I was just an innocent bystander
And since when was that a crime?
