Lyrics

[Verse 1] When I was six, I had my first lady When I was eight, my first drink When I was fourteen, I was speeding in the streets What could anybody say to me? [Pre-Chorus] You can call me Mister, you can call me Sir But don't you point your finger at me [Chorus] I want a mistrial to clear my name I want a mistrial in front of the people I want a mistrial to clear my name I want to bring my case to the people of New York City [Verse 2] When I was thirty, my attitude was bad If I said differently, it'd be a lie But there's some smarts you learn down in the street That a college education can't buy [Pre-Chorus] You can call me Mister, or you can call me Sir But don't you point your finger at me, oh [Chorus] Oh, I want a mistrial to clear my name I want a mistrial in front of the people I want a mistrial to clear my name I want to bring my case in front of the people at New York City [Guitar Solo] [Pre-Chorus] You can call me Mister, or you can call me Sir But don't you point your finger at me, yeah [Chorus] I want a mistrial to clear my name I want a mistrial in front of the people, aye aye I want a mistrial to clear my name I want to bring my case to the people at New York City [Outro] And I said "M-I-S-T-R-I-A-L", mistrial In front of all the people I says "M-I-S-T-R-I-A-L", mistrial In front of the people of New York City Mistrial, through the people of New York City I says mistrial "M-I-S-T-R-I-A-L", respect me
