(Chorus)
I am not a crook. 2X
I was slightly framed.
I'm pretty sure my cabinet was out to get me.
I swear on my mother's grave,
I swear on my father's grave,
I swear on Chevy and Ford and American Oil.
That
(Chorus)
My brother died in Korea
My brother died in Vietnam
My brother died in the Cold War
My brother avoided the draft.
(Chorus)
I stand for justice and equality.
Ask anyone I know and you will see.
I've made mistakes and I'm a liar and a cheat.
I don't know how this world works.
But I am not a crook.
