作词 : Golan, Ross Jacob 作曲 : Golan, Ross Jacob The wrong man is singing this song, man The wrong man The wrong man is singing this song, man The wrong man How many ways can you say I won't wait? How many times can you mention I'll see an extension? There are only 90 days 'til the execution date Give me a stay, don't make me a statistical anomaly It wasn't me who shot a man in Reno just to watch him die I was at the same casino, but it was another guy A Folsom prisoner admitted he committed the crime Now I'm serving his time, now my life is on the line An eye for an eye, sure A tooth for a tooth, sure But I'm not the one lying I've only told the truth, sir When I told the jury I'm an innocent man I swore on my grave The witness pointed out the wrong man The wrong man is singing this song, man The wrong man The wrong man is singing this song, man The wrong man How many ways can you say I won't wait? How many times can you mention I'll see an extension? There are only 60 days 'til the execution date Give me a stay, don't make me a statistical anomaly The wrong man is singing this song, man The wrong man A statistical anomaly When I first got to this prison And I first got in this position News ran and a man made it a mission To spread a statewide petition The incumbent governor Announced he refused to listen Said the victim won't return And this will teach me a lesson If you were in my shoes You would beg to be free too I got less than two months until I die Tell me what can I do? I'm not giving up until my blood runs dry How many ways can you say I won't wait? How many times can you mention I'll see an extension? There are only 30 days 'til the execution date Give me a stay, don't make me a statistical anomaly People picketing, protesting the system Police ticketing those trying to get them to listen I pretend to hear the voices chanting, "Let him be free" But in reality, it's been silent for 23 weeks I'm refusing my last meal, I killed nobody How can they blast potassium chloride in my body? It's why I pleaded not guilty, I killed nobody Get me out of here, listen, I didn't kill anybody How many ways can you say I won't wait? How many times can you mention I'll see an extension? There's only a day 'til the execution date Give me a stay, don't make me a statistical anomaly The wrong man is singing this song, man The wrong man If you were in my shoes The wrong man is singing this song, man The wrong man You would beg to be free too The wrong man is singing this song, man The wrong man If you were in my shoes
