It wasn't me, baby, no it wasn't me, baby.
It must have been some other body, uh uh, baby, it wasn't me
Said he was cold, tired and hungry, came a begin?for bread;
The lady took him and fed him breakfast in bed.
It wasn't me, Boss, it wasn't me, it wasn't me.
It must have been some other body, uh uh, Boss, it wasn't me.
You say you saw my car parked in the drive in one night;
Came over to speak to me, I was out of sight
I wasn't me, baby, uh uh, baby, it wasn't me
It must have been some other body, uh uh, Sarge, it wasn't me
Yes, a shrewd young whipper snapper love to run and play;
But the draft got him, they inducted him today
It wasn't me, Sarge, uh uh, Sarge, it wasn't me
It must have been some other body, uh uh, Sarge, it wasn't me
I met a German girl in England who was goin?to school in France
Said we dance in Mississippi at a Alpha Keppa dance
It wasn't me, Officer, no, Officer, it wasn't me
It must have been some other body, uh uh, Officer, it wasn't me
Wailing down the freeway, testing out the cruisin?power;
State trooper trailing, clocked him ninety miles per hour
It wasn't me, Sheriff; Uh huh, Sheriff, it wasn't me
Ah! It must have been some other body, uh uh, Sheriff, it wasn't me
Calling for brave young soldiers, needed on the front row;
Lieutenant said, "Which one of y'all volunteer to go??br> It wasn't me, Captain, uh uh, Captain, it wasn't me
It must have been some other body, uh uh, Captain, it wasn't me
