00:00Here I stand in the courthouse with my hands and feet in chains
00:19The judge is reading out the verdict and my heart is fraught with pain
00:29I know they will find me guilty for a murder that I didn't do
00:39But I said that I will plead the fifth, but what else can I do?
00:49I plead the fifth and I'd rather die
00:58Than to tell the truth and give my alibi
01:07I was in another woman's arms and it would hurt her more if she knew
01:15That I'd been untrue, then guilty of a crime I didn't do
01:24I could prove my innocence but my secret dies with me
01:34For I won't give my evidence and my silence is my plea
01:43I plead the fifth and I'd rather die
01:52Than to tell the truth and give my alibi
02:01I was in another woman's arms and it would hurt her more if she knew
02:10That I'd been untrue, then guilty of a crime I didn't do
02:19I plead the fifth and I'd rather die
02:28And I'd rather die
02:33Than to tell the truth and give my alibi
02:43I plead the fifth and I'd rather die
02:50Than to tell the truth and give my alibi
02:58Give my alibi
