Oh, help me in my weakness I heard the drifter sing
As they carried him from the courtroom And were taking him away
My trip hasn't been a pleasant one And my [D] time [A] isn't long
And I still do not know What it was that I've done wrong
[D] [A] Well, the judge he cast his robe aside A tear came to his eye
He failed to understand, he said Why must you even try?
Outside the crowd was stirring You could hear it from the door
Inside the judge was stepping down While [D] the jury [A] cried for more
[D]
[A] Oh, stop that cursed jury!
Cried the attendant and the nurse
The trial was bad enough But this is ten times worse
Just then a bolt of lightning Struck the [D] courthouse out [A] of shape
And while everybody knelt to pray The drifter [D] did [A]
escape
