Whats a man to do when hes bein acused
I hear you talkin its real bad news

Nothin happened with that girl last night

So baby wont you tell me why

You got your mind in the gutter

You got your mind in the gutter

Youre jumpin to conclusions and its plain to see
You got your mind in the gutter dont blame me

You say Im foolin round playin the field

Baby let me tell you its not big deal

No I aint gettin a little on the side
But I feel like a prisoner with both hands tied

You say you found a number on a matchbook in my coat

And lipstick smeared on my shirt

I hate to disappoint you and it scares me to death
That if your shovel aint full you just keep diggin up some dirt

Youve pushed me into a corner youve got my back to the wall

I stand accused of bein lome kind of liar

Hey I wouldnt those you down if you were on fire
You got your mind in the gutter

You got your mind in the gutter

Baby I keep those women far away from my skin

But since your minds in the gutter man I just cant win

I too her aside to give her my point of view
What you tryin to pull babe it just aint true

There should be a warnin up above your cage

Sayin dont feed the lion shes in a state of rage

How can I prove that Ive done nothin wrong

You know in your heart that youre all that I want

Youre all fired up just a little too tight

Now babe what can I tell you you just aint right

Aint got a bad reputation so why you tearin it down

Dont know what happened but your minds gone south

No I cant believe what comes out of your mouth
You got your mind in the gutter

You got your mind in the gutter

I know what youre sayin but it just aint true
Youve got your mind in the gutter baby shame on you

You say Im foolin round playin the field

Baby let me tell you its not big deal
No I aint gettin a little on the side
Baby what can I tell you you just aint right
