1
It was on a Sunday morning in the merry month of June
2
I was driving to Ontario, I had to get there soon
3
"¨Thought I'd cross the border, take a shortcut through the States
4
I'll live to regret it cause it was a big mistake
5
The guard stopped me at customs and asked "Whatcha bringing in?"
6
He stood for law and order so I gave a nervous grin
7
"¨"I'm passing through your country and I won't be staying long
8
I'm a Canadian folk singer and I'm only bringing songs."
9
He said, "I'd really like to trust you but you surely have to stop
10
Hassling folk singers is a big part of my job
11
"¨I'd really like to let you go but I don't know where you've been
12
So pull your car on over "˜cause I have to bring you in."
13
He looked my car once over, he tore the panels off the door
14
He poked around my engine, he tore the rug off of the floor
15
"¨I could see him get excited and I started to feel the heat
16
"˜Cause he found some marijuana underneath the seat
17
It's not mine! It's not mine!
18
I never touch wacky tobaccy, I only drink what's on the vine
19
"¨It's not mine! It's not mine!
20
I don't know where it came from but I swear it isn't mine!
21
I've only smoked three times before and I never did inhale
22
I've never had a ticket and I've never been in jail
23
"¨I was raised on God and Jesus, at school my marks they were the best
24
But now I'm at the border and I'm under arrest
25
I've been charged! I've been charged!
26
They found a stash of contraband under the front seat of my car
27
"¨I've been charged! I've been charged!
28
I'm an alien invader and a criminal at large
29
For all of my troubles I thank my good friend Rich
30
I don't know how it got there but I know that it was his"¨
31
I'm stuck here at the border and things are getting rough While he sits in his living room and takes another puff
32
It was his! It was his!
33
He left it in a plastic bag and now I'm really pissed
34
It's not mine! It's not mine!
35
But now I've got to take the rap and I might be doing time
36
Everything is going wrong, I've used up all my luck
37
I'm caught with someone else's pot and now I'm really f#*%$"¨
38
They've gone and flagged my passport and they're going to take my car
39
And now he's looking closely at the wood on my guitar
40
It's not Brazilian! It's Argentinean!
41
And those drugs aren't mine, they're his and now I'm really screwed!
42
"¨I've been charged! I've been charged!
43
I'm an alien invader and a criminal at large
Pocketdrum that can be charged anytime, ...
