I Was Framed

Upon my word I was framed

I was framed

I was framed

Now I'm paying for another's crime

Now my life's just counting time

Somebody please come and get me released

Somebody rescue me

Cause I'm not the man who they take me to be

Somebody set me free

I guess the deck was stacked

That's not the mark of Cain

That is on my back

So I grew up fast staying out of view

Still I'm a man just the same as you

Will somebody please come and get me released

Somebody rescue me

Cause there's an innocent man

Under lock and key

Somebody set me free

Somebody rescue me

Cause it ain't fair oh gray eyed queen

It ain't fair to me

You hold the scales but you don't see

That it ain't fair to me

My momma told me it would be like this

You got just one shot so you best not miss

So each night I'm praying to the god on high

But he don't hear my lonesome cry

Somebody please come and get me released

Somebody rescue me

Cause I'm not the man who they take me to be

Somebody rescue me

Somebody set me free

Somebody rescue me

Cause I was framed I was framed
