The Other Side of the Coin Songtext

von Nick Lowe

If I'd done all the things they say I? ve done
I? d be in the ground or on the run
Take a look before they close the book
At the other side of the coin

Yes, there? s much for which I could have done
But let him without sin cast the first stone
Before you do, there? s a point of view
On the other side of the coin

I? m just a man foolish and proud
Too quick they say to play up to the crowd
But before you judge, if judge ye must
Take your time, be sure the verdict? s just

Before you do, remember there? s another point of view
Can you stand up and say justice was done today
And that I was wrong before you see what? s on
The other side of the coin, the other side of the coin
