You read me my rights and then you said "Let's go" and nothing more
I thought of my nights, and how they were
They were filled with --
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh
[intro/hook x 2]
We sat in the night with my hands cuffed at my ... side
I look at your life and your style
I wanted nothing more
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh
[intro/hook]
Walking the line, you were a marksman
Told me that law, like wine, is ageless
Public defender
You had to admit
You wanted the love of a sex offender

I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh
My vision in blue, I call you from inside my cell
And in the trial, you were there
With your badge and rubber boots
I think all the time how I'm going to perpetrate love with you
And when I get out, there's no doubt I'll be sex offensive to you
