"The Right To Remain Silent" lyrics

I pulled into the drive as the sun was on the rise
Prayin' that she was still asleep
I made my way down the hall, bouncin' off the wall
A little unsteady on my feet
I slipped through the bedroom door, she let out a roar
"Where in the hell have you been all night?"
As I held my achin' head, she said "This time you're dead"
She started readin' me my rights

She said, "You have the right to remain silent
Your alibis don't cut no ass with me
You have the right to remain silent
You know you're as guilty as can be
And what you say can and will be held against you
A lawyer is the only thing you need
You have the right to remain silent
And I have the right to leave"

I can't say what she said as her suitcase hit the bed
But I can tell you she told me where to go
Curlers flappin' in her hair, she stripped her closet bare
The fastest she's ever packed her clothes
She said, "See you in court", she stormed out the door
She was still jackin' her jaw
Her fuse had burned all night, she went off like dynamite
Well, that woman really laid down the law

She said, "You have the right to remain silent
Your alibis don't cut no ass with me
You have the right to remain silent
You know you're as guilty as can be
And what you say can and will be held against you
A lawyer is the only thing you need
You have the right to remain silent
And I have the right to leave"

She said, "You have the right to remain silent
Your alibis don't cut no ass with me
You have the right to remain silent
You know you're as guilty as can be
And what you say can and will be held against you
A lawyer is the only thing you need
You have the right to remain silent
And I have the right to leave
You have the right to remain silent
And I have the right to leave"

But darlin', I was only havin' a good time
