Subject: ./w/wright_o_v/eight_men_four_women.crd
A huge R&B hit (#80 Pop) for 'The Nucleus of Soul', O.V. Wright, in the
spring of 1967.
"Eight Men, Four Women"
("Deadric Malone", a.k.a. Don Robey, a.k.a.
anonymous Duke/Peacock staff writers)
Intro (sung by backing vocalists):
Am Dm
(Eight men, four women
F7 E7 Am E7
Lord, that's the jury of love)
Verse 1:
Am
I dreamed that love was a crime
I was alone, so lonely and blue
C E7 Am F
You know why? Because eight men and four women, Lord
Am Dm Am E7
They found me guilty of loving you (loving you)
Verse 2:
As they were taking me away
You were taking, I saw you when you were taking the witness stand
You know what? I heard the lawyer when he asked you, my love
"Do you really love that man?"
Bridge:
Am
It was eight men and four women (guilty)
E7
How could they be so blind (guilty)
Am Dm
How could they? I knew they sat there
F7 E7 Am E7
And called true love a crime [this is what killed me]
Verse 3:
But a tear rolled down my cheek
I felt so sorry for you
You know why? Because in my heart I knew, oh yes, baby I knew
That they would find you guilty too
Spoken interlude:
Am
Judge, your honor and to the jury
I intend to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that we are innocent
And true love is not a crime
Coda:
F7 E7 Am
(Lord, that's the jury of love)
Lord, that's the jury of love
F7 E7 Am
A mean judge and a mean jury, oh, that's the jury of love
(Lord, that's the jury of love)
F7 E7 Am
(Lord, that's the jury of love) [fade]
