“It Wasn’t Me”
I ran through the street, as fast as can be!
I looked back to see, someone chasing me!
I thought to myself, this can not be!
Someone screaming and shouting, shouting at me?
Out of breath, sweat pouring from my face.
I looked for a safe, resting place.
Through the bushes, and over fences!
In a back yard, a dog barks, and pinches!
Looking for water, I clearly could see!
The men in blue, searching for me.
I thought to myself, what a bad dream.
then this old lady, started to scream!
I did my best to cover my trail.
No one wants, to land in jail!
I told them a story, what happens to be?
I made it clear, “IT WASN’T ME”!
