Blackmail

I picked her up
In a local bar
We kissed and hugged
In the backseat of my car
I split before things
Things got out a hand
Didn’t wanna hurt my girl
She loves and trusts her man
If I’m lying, someone cut off my hand
If I’m lying, struck me down as a man
I hardly touched
Touched that evil girl
To lose my bride to-be, which surely is my world
It’s blackmail
That’s all. That’s all it is
It’s blackmail
That’s all. That’s all it is, girl
She told me that I was to blame
Her unborn child would have my last name
She asked for money
To send her away
Afraid she’d tell my bride to-be, if I refuse to pay
If I’m lying, hope that I go blind
If I’m lying, I must be losing my mind
I never thought of that evil girl again
'til she tracked me down through by bartender friend
It’s blackmail
That’s what I’m going through
It’s blackmail
About something I didn’t do
I woke up in the middle of the night
Couldn’t stand living in the shadows of a lie
I knew it would be hard to make her understand
That just didn’t mean a thing, but I’m human — I’m a man
If I’m lying, hope that I go blind
If I’m lying, I must be losing my mind
I never thought of that evil girl again
'til she tracked me down through by bartender friend
It’s blackmail
That’s all. That’s all it is
It’s blackmail
That’s all. That’s all it is
Blackmail
What I’m going through
It’s blackmail
But something I didn’t do
