Lyrics

Brothers *

Late last night I was taken in but I wouldn't say a thing a bank was robbed in the afternoon and all the money went missing sure enough they kept me there said I couldn't afford the bail my lawyer said with my alibi thier case is pretty frail

Sheriff Terry King was the first to take the stand he said "I'd know that face anywhere yeah Judge that's your man" little does he know I got a brother who looks just like me my lawyer stood him up in the back of the room and crushed Kings credibility

A dozen people quite
confused by this twist in the case they weren't counting on another man with exactly the same face my lawyer smiled and said this is going great the story ya gave the cops is Stonewall Jackson straight

Blood is thicker than water and we always have a plan only one of us is guilty are you sure you brought the right one in we both have an alibi we were in the same place the court has an eye witness but now she can't be 100%

At the time of the crime I was helping a few friends thier sitting there right in front of you why don't you ask them for yourself my brother would use his name and sometimes he'd use mine and thats what put both of us far away from the crime

In the end confusion won thank the lawyer man for that he's just as guilty as both of us the money we stole he took half in this life of crime no one is as good as we are with the perfect alibi me and my twin brother
