Undercover cop car
  came screeching to a halt
  body lying on the ground
  must be someone's fault
  circumstantial evidence
  seemed to point her way
  her right to remain silent
  was all she heard them say
  
  Blue dress, blue eyes
  blonde hair, about five foot nine
  wrong place, wrong time
  wrong face, wrong crime
  
  (Chorus):
  Mistaken identity
  could happen to you or to me
  mistaken identity
  mistaken identity
  could happen to you or to me
  mistaken identity
  mistaken identity
  
  (I didn't do it, no, I didn't do it)
  
  No money for a lawyer
  to defend her case
  standing in the line-up
  tears rolling down her face
  
  No one cared to listen
  someone had to take the heat
  sometimes there's no justice
  when you're a victim of the street
  
  Wrong place, wrong time
  wrong face, wrong crime (x4)
  
  (Chorus):
  
  Tu ut tu tu tu...tu ut tut tu tu
  
  They didn't even say
  I'm sorry
  tried to put her away
  in a hurry
  
  Don't make her pay the price
  she's not guilty
  (guilty)
  for someone else's crime
  set her free
  (set her free)
  
  I didn't
  I didn't
  I didn't do it no (x4)
  
  (Chorus out)
