Police, won't you grant me my release? |
|
I should be a freeman now at least, |
|
I'm no robber |
|
I'm no thief. |
|
I should be a freeman on the street. |

|
Found myself in a situation, |
|
Lost my temper and my patience. |

It's the simple things that are the wind beneath my wings. |
|
I never trouble nobody, |
|
I never trouble no one. |

|
Without much success at all. |

They say I'm a criminal but the wicked must fall. |
|
Freedom gone and we still stand tall. |

Dem say "freeze!" and we say;"What for? We already have respect for da law" |
