Jonas Brothers - Don't Charge me for the crime (ft. Common) Video

Don't charge me for the crime

This is life in this world
Some things go right, some things go wrong
It's just how the world can be
People just want to be free, yeah

The verdict came in and they said I was guilty
I looked at the judge 'Hey, America built me'
Try to get rich but they label me filthy
Only God can judge me, touch me, feel me

My friend calls me at 9 o'clock, says 'Get the car, it's time to rock'
Never heard him speak this way
I grab the keys and ht the road
It's all a flash, but who would know
How the story would unfold

Don't charge me for the crime
Wrong place, wrong time
Don't charge me for the crime
Wrong place, wrong time
Don't charge me for the crime

My friend gets in the car with bags
Filled to the top with loads of cash
Throws his pistol on the dash
He says 'I'm sorry for the crime, that I've involved you in this time. You're the only friend I've got'

Don't charge me for the crime
Wrong place, wrong time
Don't charge me for the crime
Wrong place, wrong time
Don't charge me for the crime

I start to freak and scream so loud
Just like the females in the crowd
That's when he get's in my head
You could live just like a king
With everything you'd ever need
All the dreams of every man

Don't charge me for the crime
Wrong place, wrong time
Don't charge me for the crime
Wrong place, wrong time
Don't charge me...

Siren sound and my heart was poundin'
I looked at my men as the cops suuround them
A teen on the scene with no objective
The American dream can be so deceptive

Now I see the flashing light's
There goes my future and my life
Now I've gotta do what's right
I stop the car and throw the keys
Out of the window, set's me free
Throw the pistol in the back

Throws me out of the car
I sai'd 'you know me well'
I'm not goin'to jail
I'm not paying your bill
Believe me when I say

They won't charge me for the crime
Wrong place, wrong time
Don't charge me for the crime
Wrong place, wrong time
Don't charge me...Yeah!
Wrong place, wrong time
Wrong place, wrong time
Don't charge me for the crime...
