歌曲歌詞
What the hell was I doing there in
That fast food parking lot
They say I robbed the restaurant and
A Memphis cop got shot
I was trying to feed my habit I was
Scared and I was high
It was never my intention that anyone
Should die
And just how many of us are innocent enough
Just how many of us are innocent enough
Just how many of us are innocent enough
My name is Philip Workman and I'm not
Innocent enough
It's not a long walk from a trailer park to a
Tennessee cell block
But I got saved behind these bars soon
I'll give my soul to God
Reverend Joe is praying for me and the
Family left behind
They say my bullet took his life but that
Bullet was not mine
Oh just how many of us are innocent enough
Just how many of us are innocent enough
Just how many of us are innocent enough
My name is Philip Workman and I'm not
Innocent enough
I had no money for a lawyer to fight the
System from within
There's no justice for the poor from the
Witness they brought in
Circumstance and random chance I never
Meant to do no harm
Now that cop and I we've both died from
That needle in my arm
And there where those who called for mercy
In those final days
Even the officer's daughter cried to grant me stay
But I'm not innocent enough I'm not innocent enough
I'm not innocent enough I'm not innocent enough
And just how many of us are innocent enough
Just how many of us are innocent enough
Just how many of us are innocent enough
My name was Philip Workman I was not innocent enough
