That old gossip wheel keeps turning till it finally hits the wrong ears and the tears spill and the heart breaks and that's more than i can take.

Now I'm sittin in this 6 by 9 and they, they talkin about takin my life but i don't care if it's wrong or right I did what i had to do. Lovin that girl is all i had. It's the reason why I'm where I'm at. The 6th commandment was my sin but the 7th one did him in.
