What’s a man to do when he’s bein’ accused
  I hear you talkin’ it’s real bad news
  nothin’ happened with that girl last night
  so baby won’t you tell me why
  
  You got your mind in the gutter
  you got your mind in the gutter
  you’re jumpin’ to conclusions
  and it’s plain to see
  you got your mind in the gutter
  don’t blame me
  
  So you say I’m foolin’ ‘round playin’ the field
  baby let me tell you it’s no big deal
  no I ain’t gettin’ a little on the side
  but I feel like a prisoner with both hands tied
  
  You say you found a number on a matchbox in my coat
  and lipstick smeared on my shirt
  I hate to disappoint you and it scares me to death
  that if your shovel ain’t full you just keep diggin’ up some dirt
  
  You’ve pushed me into a corner you’ve got my back to the wall
  I stand accused of bein’ some kind of liar
  hey I wouldn’t hose you down if you were on fire
  
  You ‘ve got your mind in the gutter
  you ‘ve got your mind in the gutter
  baby I keep those women
  far away from my skin
  but since your mind’s in the gutter
  man I just can’t win
  
  I took her aside to give her my point of view
  what you tryin’ to pull babe it just ain’t true
  there should be a warnin’ up above your cage
  sayin’ don’t feed the lion she’s in a stat of rage
  
  How can I prove that I’ve done nothin’ wrong
  you know in your heart that you’re all that I want
  you’re fired up just a little too tight
  how babe what can I tell you, you just ain’t right
  
  Ain’t got a bad reputation so why you tearin’ it down
  don’t know what happened but your mind’s gone south
  no I can’t believe what comes out of your mouth
  
  You ‘ve got your mind in the gutter
  you ‘ve got your mind in the gutter
  but it just ain’t true
  you ‘ve got your mind in the gutter
  baby shame on you
  
  So you say I’m foolin’ ‘round playin’ the field
  you know better ‘cause it’s no big deal
  I ain’t getting’ al little on the side
  baby what can I tell you, you just ain’t right
