Album: Grace and Grit — www.debcallahanband.com/ Lyrics
You know Im guilty of everything youve accused me of.
Im guilty of everything youve accused me of.
I dont need no judge or jury to know Ive wronged the one I love

He was just a stranger, he meant nothing, cant you see.
Oh, he was… he was just a stranger passing by.
Oh he meant nothing, baby, cant you see.
I could see it in his eyes. He was, he was trouble just like me.

I know I lied and cheated
And I know I hurt you real bad.
Oh baby I did some bad things
And you have every right to be mad.

Oh Im guilty, guilty in the first degree.
I know Im guilty, oh so, oh so throw the book at me.

They been telling me I was no good since I was… I was just a child.
They say I was a bad seed when I was born,
Oh and Ill be bad news… bad news when I die.

I will know some day when Ill make you leave me
It was written in the stars away, way up high.
I know I lied and I cheated. And I know it hurt your real bad.
Oh, Lord, I did some bad things.
And you have every… every right to be mad.

Oh, Im guilty. Im guilty in the first degree.
Oh you know, I know Im guilty and I dont deserve…
I dont deserve your sympathy.
Oh no, no, no.
I know Im guilty. Im guilty, oh yes.

Oh baby, I messed up. I messed up all this sweet love,
Your good love, your good love you gave to me.
I know Im guilty, oh yes. So go ahead, go ahead, throw the book at me.
