GUILTY©

a.k.a. HE'S GUILTY
a.k.a. SEND THAT BOY TO JAIL
a.k.a. THE JUDGE SONG

Live 13 Jan 1970 version

All rise

Well the judge and the jury came into the court room
About 9:30, the 23rd of Jun
Now we're here to try this boy for his crime
To see if we set him free or make him serve his time
Jury all stood up in the chairs
He's guilty, he's guilty, send that boy to jail

Whoa George is speeding and running down his father
Killing his father, stabbing his lover
The court is ready to hear your plea
Well are you guilty or not guilty
The jury all stood up to hear his plea
He's guilty, he's guilty, don't let that boy go free

All rise

Well the judge and the jury came into the court room
Well about 9:30, the 23rd of Jun
The court is ready to try the crime
To see if we gonna kill you or let you stay alive
The jury all stood up in the chairs
He's guilty, he's guilty, send that boy to jail
He's guilty, he's guilty, send that boy to jail
He's guilty, he's guilty, send that boy to jail
