Songtext von Five Minutes More

There's a man in a suit at my front door And he's got some paper in his hand Says I got to come down to the station And he hopes I'll take it like a man 'Cause they caught me taking what wasn't mine And it looks like I'll be doin' time. [chorus:] Give me five minutes more to tell my baby goodbye. Well they stood me up in front of a jury, And they told me what is was I'd done And the judge said, "We're finding you guilty." I said, "Judge, I'm not the guilty one." There wasn't anything left that I could say 'Cause they sentenced me to ninety days. [repeat chorus] Baby I got something to say You know they're gonna put me away It'll only be matter of days Then I'll be comin' back to you Comin' back to you, comin' back to you. Well they're gonna put some walls around me And there's nothin' anyone can do I'm gonna do my time in the county And I hope that time is all that I lose Maybe this won't be so bad Woman, don't you look so sad. [repeat chorus]
