In the summer of 1971 out in Louisiana state
A decision was made which was not great
Wilbert Jones was found guilty of a terrible crime
So begins his story by way of a rhyme
The judge called Jones an evil and despicable male
Jones spent 45 years living from jail to jail
History now shows Jones was not the guilty man
45 years of his life wasted and down the pan
A nurse was raped and murdered that is a fact
Who would do such a cowardly and brutal act ?
Wilbert Jones my heart goes out to you
Being found guilty for something you did not do
