[00:00.000] 作曲 : De Backer
[00:50.513]A handsome stranger
[00:55.526]Gave me a ride
[00:58.283]He had a suitcase full of lies
[01:03.798]That he sold me
[01:10.315]I sensed no danger
[01:13.073]When I was there right by his side
[01:17.334]He said I compelled him to confide
[01:23.604]So he told me
[01:28.366]Take this car
[01:33.129]And drive downstate
[01:37.390]Then take off the licence plates
[01:42.153]And wait for me
[01:50.174]I could have argued
[01:52.931]But he said for my trouble I could keep
[01:57.443]Half the money in the bag on the back seat
[02:02.206]At least, that's what he told me
[02:08.473]And he said he thought I looked trustworthy
[02:12.985]And I must admit that the thrill of it all got the better of me
[02:17.747]So I drove down the highway with great speed
[02:22.259]Until they resounded behind me
[02:26.521]Sirens! The police
[02:50.522]They pull me over to the side of the road
[02:54.533]And tell me that the car was stolen, that's why I was followed
[02:59.546]I try to tell them I was only doing what I was told
[03:03.807]But no, they won't listen to me
[03:09.322]They cuff my hands and say
[03:10.826]€˜Now girl, the money, where did you hide it?'
[03:14.335]Then I know without even checking the bag
[03:16.341]That there's no money inside it
[03:18.847]But when they read my rights
[03:20.103]I know that it's no use
[03:21.354]Saying, I'm not lying'
[03:24.111]No, please let me go
[03:32.634]Please listen to me
[03:37.898]I am not guilty
[03:43.162]A handsome stranger tricked me
[03:45.418]Why did he have to hand-pick me?
[03:48.426]He told me to take this car
[03:53.690]And drive downstate
[03:57.701]Then to take off the licence plates
[04:03.215]And wait there for him
[04:09.231]But of course they don't believe me
[04:10.485]So from there they drive me back to the station
[04:13.994]And after I've been booked they began a three-day interrogation
[04:19.258]I barely ate, I only slept an hour
[04:21.012]But somehow I stayed patient and calm
[04:25.524]They did me no harm
[04:30.789]But the bag was the key to this mystery
[04:35.551]He bought it the very same day that he
[04:40.564]Robbed that bank upstate and then picked me
[04:43.823]To be his fall guy patsy
[05:02.122]Five years later
[05:06.383]When I'd almost forgotten that nightmarish day
[05:10.394]I was struck by the handsome features of a stranger across the way
[05:15.407]As he got out of a car, with a girl behind the wheel, and I heard him say
[05:20.671]Take this car
[05:25.687]And drive downstate
[05:33.207]Then take off the licence plates
[05:36.716]And wait for me
