Geordie's Gone To Jail

(album: Idle Gossip - 1986)

He's not a thief or a burglar
He never robbed a bank
He didn't commit murder
All Geordie's bullets were blank

Set Geordie free, coz Geordie's not guilty

He's a good guy
The guy they never saw
The coppers were mistaken
Geordie never broke the law

Set Geordie free, he never shot nobody at all

[Chorus:]
Geordie, oh... he's the innocent party
Geordie, they've locked him away
Geordie, oh... never shot nobody at all
Geordie, Geordie's gone to jail

He never takes any drugs
Only penicillin (when he's got a headache)
The fingerprint wasn't Geordie's
Geordie's never been a villain

Set Geordie free, he never shot nobody at all

[Chorus]

Geordie's got a pistol
It's for self defence
But he didn't pull the trigger
He committed no offence

Set Geordie free, he never shot nobody at all

[Chorus]
