Story

Written By Paul Bailey



It was while on vacation at my favorite 
destination!

Feelin free- happy to see  my family.

But what I didn't know- is what I - got my self into- got caught

in a situation that needed  law and
litigation!

Pre Chorus

What a fool I could be bringing things not for me.

Made a real bad decision

Can't you see oh help me please! Can't you see it's stressing  me

Just one mistake- got me saying- it wasn't me- it wasn't me....



CHORUS

I'm tell-in you this story so don't make the same

mistakes as I did,... it will only bring you grief. Temptation

is the glory- but jail will be your story- if your doing wrong,

and singing a real bad song.



They took me to the station and held me for duration

in the holding cell..... until my first court date.

So I made up my mind I had to find a good 
lawyer-to get me out

of this four wall trap.                                                    



Pre Chorus

(What a fool I could be bringing things not for me.)

Made a real bad decision

Can't you see oh help me please! Can't you see it's stressing me

Just one mistake- got me saying- it wasn't me, it wasn't me....



CHORUS

I'm tell-in you this story so you won't make the same

mistakes as I did,... it will only bring you grief. Temptation

is the glory- but Jail will be your story- if your doing wrong,

and singing a real bad song.

It took me only three days- to make the point in my case

That I was innocent- of any kind of wrong doing!

As my lawyer  worked  the case- they say-" I was up to no
good"

But he proved them wrong- as he finished real strong..!

Pre Choruus

What a fool I
could be bringing things not for me.

Made a real bad decision

Can't you see oh help me please! Can't you see it's stressing me

Just one mistake- got me saying- it wasn't me, it wasn't me....





Repeat Chorus
