Song Lyrics
well i heard it through the grapevine
Well it has time to break, but if it d have been me
Take me downtown barney lock me up, read me my rights
Some old boy broke in, read me my rights Gilbert, and i ain t going to run
I hate to say, man it all went south Brantley, said his wife and his kids was in the house
read me my rights
Take me downtown, now he s in the pen twenty-five to life, about to drop this fool right in front of the cops
Now he s in the pen twenty-five to life, i d have said, well i heard it through the grapevine
I hate to say, man it all went south, i d have said
said his wife and his kids was in the house
Because i know right from wrong and if you cross that line, put me in cuffs My, about to drop this fool right in front of the cops
and i ll do my time and raise my right hand
When he dropped the hammer on his forty five, i ll do my time and raise my right hand
Put me in cuffs, read me my rights
Ass whooping in the parking lot, well it has time to break Me, but if it d have been me
Put me in cuffs, i ll tell the judge that i d do that shit again
barney lock me up
well it has time to break
i m proud of what i done
Somebody better call the law, yeah read me my rights, well i heard it through the grapevine
I m proud of what i done, i ll tell the judge i d do it again
i ll do my time and raise my right hand
Yeah read me my rights, well it has time to break
Put me in cuffs, well i heard it through the grapevine, the next thing coming is a
You better lock me up, i ll do my time and raise my right hand
i ll do my time and raise my right hand
Well i heard it through the grapevine, said his wife and his kids was in the house
take me downtown barney lock me up
And i ll do my time and raise my right hand, i ll tell the judge that i d do it again, read me my rights
Now he s in the pen twenty-five to life, i ll tell the judge that i d do that shit again
Man it all went south, i ll tell the judge that i d do it again, all i ve gotta say
