Well I've been accused of breaking hearts
They say that I'm no good
But don't go trusting everything you hear
Honey, we don't need no witnesses, just let me testify
And I'll make the evidence come crystal clear

You be the judge
Honey we don't need no jury
We can handle this alone
I'll show you my side of the story

Don't turn me loose when I get through
Just sentence me to love with you
You be the judge
You be the judge

Well if wanting you is a crime
I guess I'm guilty to the bone
And I can't go straight no matter how I try
You turn me up the river, girl
'Cause you decide my fate
But loving you is a charge I won't deny

You be the judge
Honey we don't need no jury
We can handle this alone
I'll show you my side of the story
Don't turn me loose when I get through
Just sentence me to love with you
You be the judge
You be the judge

You be the judge
Honey we don't need no jury
We can handle this alone
I'll show you my side of the story
You be the judge
