Innocent Bystander - Billy Dean

I was mindin' my own business

When you came in dressed to kill

I knew right then, I was in trouble

But not of my own free will

Now I have to say in my defense

I ain’t done nothin' wrong

Just 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

If sayin' that I’m wanting you is slander

And you’re all I’m thinkin' of

Then I’ll gladly do my time

There’s no jury, their right mind

Would convict someone like me

Cause the way you walk, the way you talk

I could plead insanity

But I’m prepared to tell the whole truth now

I don’t need no alibi

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

If sayin' that I’m wanting you is slander

And you’re all I’m thinkin' of

Then I’ll gladly do my time

I was just an innocent bystander

Caught up in love

And since when was that a crime

If sayin' that I’m wanting you is slander

And you’re all I’m thinkin' of

Then I’ll gladly do my time

I was just an innocent bystander…
