Текст песни Not Innocent Enough (Nanci Griffith) с переводом

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
