The charge was assault & battery The judge said there'd be no bail The charge was assault & battery They dragged me off to jail
I did no crime she was no friend of mine Vengeance and justice went hand in hand But there's a law for the rich, and a law for the poor And I'm just a workin' man, I'm just a workin' man
They took no notice of her tears But they were gettin' drunk on her fear I arrived in time to spare her fate That little girl would feel no shame
I did no crime she was no friend of mine Vengeance and justice went hand in hand There's a law for the rich, and a law for the poor I'm just a workin' man, I'm just a workin' man
The charge was assault & battery The judge said there'd be no bail The charge was assault & battery And they dragged me off to jail
They turned on me mad, crazy and mean I stole 'em the cake, they were gonna cream They leapt on me like a pack of dogs Pullin' me down, they wanted me flogged
Punchin' and fightin' I got to my feet Determined to leave their blood on the street If I went down now they'd kick me to death That sweet little girl would be left a wreck
I did no crime she was no friend of mine Vengeance and justice went hand in hand There's a law for the rich, and a law for the poor I've been a workin' man, I've always been a workin' man
Their waitin' on me when I got out And they stabbed me full of holes It's now a case of kill or be killed Unwritten jungle law
I did no crime she was no friend of mine Vengeance and justice went hand in hand There's a law for the rich, and a law for the poor I'm just a simple workin' man, I'm just a simple workin' man
The charge was assault & battery The judge said there'd be no bail The charge was assault & battery Three years in the stinkin' jail
