( This is life in this world, Some things go right some things go wrong. Since how the world can be, People just wanna be free...Ya) The verdict came in. they said I was guilty I looked at the judge "Hey, America built me" Tryed to get rich, But they labeled me flithy Only god can judge..Touch me feel me A friend calls me at nine o'clock says get the car it's time to rock. Never heard him speak this way. (Let's go now) Chorus/Refrain Grab the keys and hit the road It's all a flash but who would know How this 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 Friend gets in the car, with bags filled to the top with loads of cash. Throws his pistol on the dash. (time to get money now for us) Says I'm sorry for the crime that I've revolved you in this time. Your the only friend I've got. Refrain/Chorus I start to freak and scream so loud. Just like the females in the crowd That's when he gets in my head. (C'mon man, we gotta do this) You can live just like a king, With everything you'd ever need. All the dreams of every men. Refrain/Chorus 5 Min. down my heart was poundin, I looked at my man as the cops surround 'em. A team on the scene with no objective. The American dream can be so deceptive. Now I see the flashing light, There goes my future and my life, Now I've gotta do what's right. (Aw man, they got us they got us) I stop the car and throw the keys out of the window, sets me free I throw the pistol in the back. (ah ah) Come outta the car say you know me well, I'm not goin to jail I'm not payin for it. You know what I feel. Don't charge me for the crime Wrong place, wrong time (ya) Don't charge me for the crime Wrong place wrong time Don't charge me (oooohh) Wrong time (ha ha ) Wrong place (uh uh) Don't charge me for the crime.....crime
