EN
No blood upon my hands No smokin' gun No witness that could testify to anything I've done I'd look that judge right in the eye if I ever took the stand But I'm not an innocent man No jury could convict me of breaking any law I'll never meet the jailer 'cause I never will get caught But the man here in the mirror, he clearly understands I'm not an innocent man I'm a brother I'm a husband and a son Oh, Father, I know not what I've done Forgive me and help me to forgive myself Just 'cause I get away with it It doesn't make it right It doesn't make the deeds I've done any less a crime Even if the world sees me on that righteous path I'm not an innocent man I'm a brother I'm a husband and a son Oh, Father, I know not what I've done Forgive me and help me to forgive myself When I meet the Maker There's nothing I can hide He'll see all the guilt and shame I've buried down inside And I'll ask Him to forgive me, and I'll see if He can 'Cause I'm not an innocent man I'm not an innocent man I'm not an innocent man
