Intro
Verse
They Hauled Me Through Their Courthouse Like I'd Robbed The Federal Train
Chain Gang Grinnin', Cameras Flashin', Folks All Whisperin' My Name
Judge Looked Down Through Half-Moon Glasses, Said, Boy, State Your Name
For Us
I Gave Him Four, He Sighed, We'll Stick With Just One, Son, That's Enough
Verse
Prosecutor Rolled In Smilin' With Enough Files To Sink A Boat,
Theft, Escape, Illegal Gambling, Counterfeit Id's You Wrote
Judge Flipped Every Page And Sighed, Now, All That's Alright
His Greatest Crime? He Loves Too Much To Hide
Pre-Chorus
So Lock Me Up, Boys, Throw Away The Key
I've Busted Outta Prisons From Texas To Tennessee
But There Ain't A Cell Constructed, Nor A Chain That They Can Forge
That Scares Me Half As Much As Wakin' Up Without Her
Chorus
Count One: Lovin' That Girl Beyond Reasonable Doubt
Count Two: Keepin' On Smilin' Every Time She Threw Me Out
Count Three: Plannin' Forever When Forever Scared Us Both
The Jury Looked At One Another And Voted, Guilty... Of Lovin' Too Much
Verse
My Lawyer Leaned In Whisperin', Son, I've Beat Murder Clean
Beat Bank Robbers, Horse Thieves Too, Made Twelve Folks Believe
Impossible Things
I've Walked Killers Outta Court, Watched Hangin's Disappear
But I Can't Beat Something Like This
Pre-Chorus
So Lock Me Up, Boys, Throw Away The Key
I've Busted Outta Prisons From Texas To Tennessee
But There Ain't A Cell Constructed Nor A Chain That They Can Forge
That Scares Me Half As Much As Wakin' Up Without Her
Chorus
Count One: Lovin' That Girl Beyond Reasonable Doubt
Count Two: Keepin' On Smilin' Every Time She Threw Me Out
Count Three: Plannin' Forever When Forever Scared Us Both
The Jury Looked At One Another And Voted, Guilty... Of Lovin' Too Much
Bridge
Then A Masked Lawman Crossed The Room, Locked My Wrists Without A Sound,
Stand Aside, This Heart's Too Dangerous, Federal's Where He's Bound
She Dragged Me Out, The Mask Came Off, It Was The Girl I'd Fallen For
She'd Staged The Bust So We Could Run, Two Wanted Hearts Forevermore
Chorus
Count One: Lovin' That Girl Beyond Reasonable Doubt
Count Two: Keepin' On Smilin' Every Time She Threw Me Out
Count Three: Plannin' Forever When Forever Scared Us Both
The Jury Looked At One Another And Voted, Guilty... Of Lovin' Too Much
Too Much
