eight men four women
lord that’s the jury of love
i dreamed that love was a crime
i was alone so lonely and blue
you know why because eight men and four women lord
they found me guilty of loving you loving you
as they were taking me away
you were taking i saw you when you were taking the witness stand
you know what i heard the lawyer when he asked you my love
do you really love that man
it was eight men and four women guilty
how could they be so blind guilty
how could they i knew they sat there
and called true love a crime this is what killed me
4
but a tear rolled down my cheek
i felt so sorry for you
you know why because in my heart i knew oh yes baby i knew
that they would find you guilty too
5
judge your honor and to the jury
i intend to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that we are innocent
and true love is not a crime
lord that’s the jury of love
lord that’s the jury of love
a mean judge and a mean jury oh that’s the jury of love
lord that’s the jury of love
lord that’s the jury of love fade
