The Wrong Man
I was walk walk walking down the avenue, see
A feen came along a swore that he knew me
Pointed me out among the crowd in the neighborhood
The look in his eyes told me he was up to no good
Didn't really know what he wanted to say
Kept my eyes opened as he came my way
Before I could speak, he was reaching in his pocket
I shot around the corner like a full fetched rocket
The feen came after me toting a gun
He's got to be crazy. I ain't the one
Who robbed his mother
Slapped his brother
Raped his sister
Or stabbed his lover
I don't sell drugs. I have own a gun. I don't steal cars just for fun
Well, here we go again in another bind
In the wrong place at the wrong time
Something's got to be done to make them understand
I'm not the one you think I am. You've got the wrong man
Uhhh huh
Uhhh huh
Uhhh huh
I know we look alike. But he lives on the other side
I hate to let you down. I know how long you've tried
Copper Copper please, why are you sweating me
Take a look around so you can see
I'm not the one who robbed that guy
Stomped him in the ribs and kicked him in the eye
I do have a job. I worked that day
I don't need to rob, because my job does pay
The cop swung. He gave me a slap
They through me on the ground for talking back
Until that man came along and gave me a hand
Told the police that I wasn't the man
The cop picked me up and sent me on my way
And then yelled from the cruiser
Have a nice day
Well, here we go again in another bind
In the wrong place at the wrong time
Something's got to be done to make them understand
I'm not the one you think I am. You've got the wrong man
Uhhh huh
Uhhh huh
Uhhh huh
You've got the wrong man
Uhhh huh
Uhhh huh
Uhhh huh
Well look here
I can't help feeling the way I feel
You should be true, instead of blue. I thought you knew the deal
I called you on the phone. You claimed you were not home
You think you're much too grown. I'm gonna leave you alone
You thought you had me in the palm of your hand
But Kato is the man with the master plan
So, just sit back, silence, shut up, wait
Make one wrong move, I won't hesitate
To treat you just like a dame
Call you out of your name
And make a scene that'll wind up in the hall of fame
I really don't know why you thought what you thought
I'm from the old school baby, you were bound to get caught by me
Can't you see most definitely
You're not first thing that ever really happened to me
Well, here we go again in another bind
In the wrong place at the wrong time
Something's got to be done to make them understand
I'm not the one you think I am. You've got the wrong man
Uhhh huh
Uhhh huh
Uhhh huh
You've got the wrong man
Uhhh huh
Uhhh huh
Uhhh huh
Well look here
