Prize Fighter Inferno, The

Prize Fighter Inferno, The - Who Watches The Watchmen? lyrics

I'm sittin' in Knoxville courthouse ain't got a thing to do

I don't wanna go to the movies couldn't if I wanted to cuz I'm on trial for lovin' you

Now this all started in a honky tonk just the other side of town

A girl come in took a stool by me ordered gin and drank it down

She lit up a cigarette sexly turned around

Well she said my name is Jannie and asked me what was mine

I answered Hank as I walked to the jukebox droppin' a dime

checked out her short dress low neck line

Well we danced for five or ten minutes and I held her close to me

Kissed her lips and squeezed her hips and judged about twenty three

Whispered in my ears I said yes siree

Now the scene is a little motel out on the state highway

There in room 12 little love is about to take place

And a state trooper breaks down the door shines a flash light in my face

I said what the hell is this and another man and woman come in

And the girl I'm with starts cryin' and screamin' and she runs over to them

Said thank God you're here he tried to hurt me mama

I said now you don't mean the cop says son the girl is seventeen

So that's why I'm in Knoxville courthouse and the judge passed sentence on me

And it's ten long years for statutory rape in the state penitentiary

Lord I can't believe this is happened to me

So when next time you give a girl the eye she gives you that certain smile

Just remember under that woman's breast may beat the heart of a child

Don't you let yourself be the one to help a mixed up kids go wild

This story happened a lot that's true

But you better hope and pray it never happens to you
