Mr. Officer
guitar chords lyrics
Ma'am I'm sorry to bother you today
But I'm looking for a boy named Ray
You know I got a warrant for his arrest
And they told me this is where he stays
But Mr. Officer did you know?
That is my baby you arresting, uh
Your taking him away, what did he do?
I think your making such a mistake
Mr. officer what's going on?
He said he threw that old life away, yea
So who you thinking of, you must be wrong
I know my baby he's a good man
And I know you don't know my name
And I know you don't owe me anything
But I'm begging you all the same, yea yea
And I know you don't know my name
And I know you don't owe me anything
But I'm begging you all the same, yea yea
So please, no
Don't ya take my baby
Not away, no
I'll do anything to make him stay, so
Won't you let him go
Don't you know you cutting off my life line
Yes Ma'am what can I do for you today?
Plead your case what do you have to say?
It's not my fault your man messed up just to tell ya
Better take it up a with the jury
But Mr.Officer please understand
This is my third time at your precinct.
And all you giving me is the run around
Your only testing my patience
What will I do when the lights are turned off
My rent is due and my bills are backing up
So Mr. Officer don't prosecute
I'm telling you that he's a good youth, oh oh
See I really don't your name
And I know you don't owe me anything
But I'm begging you all the same
Won't you see it my way
So please, no
Don't ya take my baby
Not away, no
I'll do anything to make him stay, so
Won't you let him go
Don't you know you cutting off my life line
Yea...
Oh me, oh my
Said I just don't know why
And now my baby's gone it's like me just wan fi cry
Even if he did the run
Yes me still I go deny
So when they throw me pon the stand
Sit around and watch me a go lie
To the lawyer to the judge
Make a blessing for me pastor
Should'nt neva kept my baby daddy, call me nafta
Hold me I go home, ay me I go face mi dada
There go your reply Mr. Officer
So please, no
Don't ya take my baby
Not away, no
I'll do anything to make him stay, so
Won't you let him go
Don't you know you cutting off my life line
