With Friends Like These

As soon as my phone rang, I knew it was something big...
The woman on the line sounded desperate...she was in trouble, and needed a good voodoolawyer; I told her to come on out to the office

There were many facets to her story,

but the one that counts is, she was accused of stealing diamonds...plenty of them.
She claimed she just got them by happenstance..."honestly, they just fell into my lap!" she said.

After looking into her story, I didn't much care how she got the rocks...
At the trial, I told her not to worry..."Wait till I give the jury my song and dance," I told her. She just smiled and said, "Let me give 'em my song and dance," and off she went to the witness stand... after she explained herself, the jury let her go...that's the way it goes in voodoo court.
