Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

 Not guilty

 For getting in your way

 While you're trying to steal the day

 Not guilty

 And I'm not here for the rest

 I'm not trying to steal your vest, do do do

I am not trying to be smart

  [break]

I only want what I can get

 I'm really sorry for your ageing head

 But like you heard me said, not guilty.

 Not guilty

 For being on your street

 Getting underneath your feet

 Not guilty

 No use handing me a writ

 While I'm trying to do my bit, do do do

I don't expect to take your heart

  [break]

I only want what I can get

 I'm really sorry that you're underfed

 But like you heard me said, not guilty.

 Not guilty

 For looking like a freak

 Making friends with every Sikh

 Not guilty

 For leading you astray

 On the road to Mandalay hey hey hey

I won't upset the apple cart

  [break]

I only want what I can get

 I'm really sorry that you've been misled

 But like you heard me said, not guilty.
