WE WROTE NEW LYRICS... FEEL FREE TO SING ALONG!!!!

When I met you, you lived just on down the street
You lived just on down the street from me.

I came over
And we watched some tv
You watched some tv with me.

You didn’t know it, just because you couldn’t see
That the shadow in the bushes was me.

And then you saw me, and the cops made me leave
I can’t believe you called the cops on me.

But I would walk a half a mile
And I would crawl a few steps more
Wanna be your man but for now I’ll just
Stand outside of your back door.

When we left town, to see your family
I was excited for them all to meet me.

It was bumpy on the floor of your back seat,
But at least the matching luggage covered me.

When we got there, you seemed so surprised
But I swore I saw a twinkle in your eye

I left in handcuffs, thought you really did love me
Now I’m in jail missing you for 2 to 3.


But I would pay a hefty bail
And I would work to make parole
Just to be the man who’s free again
To love you through your window

I see you, I hear you
I really want you and you know you want me too



?
I came to see you, but I see that you moved
And I’m not sure where you went to.

I did some research and I found out where you moved
Changed your hair, your eyes and even your name too.

Now I’m lonely, thinking more and more of you
I’ve just got to find a way to get to you.

Now I’m coming, I don’t care what they do
I just gotta find a way to be with you, baby I’m-a coming home to you.


So I will drive 500 miles
And I will drive 500 more
You will be so happy when you see this man
Pull up at your front door

And I’m driving, a little faster
And You know that I’m so crazy over you (x’s 2)

And they stopped me, and detained me
Broke probation driving over the state line (x’s 2)

Now I will serve my seven years
And I will have forgotten you
Cause I have a new life partner now
Residing in Cell block 2.
