Set him free set him free for I love him you see |
|
(Order in the court do you swear to tell the truth |
|
The whole truth and nothing but the truth so help you God) |
|
Yes I do Judge I don't believe in divorces unless they just have to be |
|
But after you have heard my story I know you'll set this man free |
|
It began right after the wedding she cheated and she lied from the start |
|
And I could see from the way they were headed |
|
This woman would soon break his heart |
|
Set him free set him free for I love him you see |
|
|
|
The three of us were always the best of friends |
|
And when I leave this courtroom Judge I know our friendship ends |
|
If you could have heard the awful things that I've heard her say |
|
She'd slapped his face she celled his name and he'd just turn away |
|
And the nights we went out for fun it was all so plain to see |
|
She would dance all night with someone else and she'd leave him there with me |
|
Set him free set him free for I love him you see |
|
|
|
Now I ask you Judge to understand think it over slow |
|
You see I fell in love with him and I don't care who knows |
|
I would respect him as a husband and I would treat him like a man |
|
I know I can help him find more happiness than this woman ever can |
|
Now Judge you've heard my story it's true as it can be |
|
I even told you that I love him so Judge won't you please set him free |
|
Set him free set him free for I love him you see (set him free) |
