Innocent Man
Rag'n'Bone Man Lyrics


I've been a victim of some sorry circumstance
That was committed by somebody else's hand
And only heaven knows how I've ended up so broke
I ain't guilty but I'm left fearing the stand

It's not my crime, so why do I have to pay?
I'm doing time, this feeling I can't shake
I'm lost in the suffering for nothing
My heart don't understand
It's beating for an innocent man

How was I supposed to know that I'd be fooled?
And the sweetest kiss could ever be so cruel
I could always let it go, but it's out of my control
Now I'm right back here still holding on to you

It's not my crime, so why do I have to pay?
I'm doing time, this feeling I can't shake
I'm lost in the suffering for nothing
My heart don't understand
It's beating for an innocent man

Man, man

From wanting, to meeting
Cut me, I'm bleeding
This heart keeps on beating
For you

It's not my crime, so why do I have to pay?
I'm doing time, this feeling I can't shake
I'm lost in the suffering for nothing
My heart don't understand

It's not my crime, so why do I have to pay?
I'm doing time, this feeling I can't shake
I'm lost in the suffering for nothing
My heart don't understand
It's beating for an innocent man

No.1 ALBUM:
Rag’n’Bone Man - Human

The top charted album on my 45th birthday.

After previous selections from artists such as Mika, the Scissor Sisters and Sam Smith, Rag ‘n’ Bone Man seemed to bring a big welcome dose of testosterone to the chart.

Not much to say about it other than I remember his music appearing and the noise people made about him at the time, and that this is the first time I’ve listened to this album.

The album released as my own life was heading into the unknown regarding my work life, with a newborn and the prospect of a business project I was trying to figure out how the hell I could get it to work.
Everyone else was happy as long as money kept rolling in, and at this time that meant handouts from the job centre and a start up loan they gave me.

Everything seemed ok for a while, I managed to get the business started and work d at home constantly training myself and figuring out how to just grab a niche that might be interested.
It was hard work but enlightening to see the possibilities that could happen if it all worked out. And at moments I really thought I could get it together. But pressure of a young family were also a major factor and the balance between them was perilous.

I also needed a break, a rest, we all did, and we were fortunate to grab a holiday on the Isle of Wight during the summer.
I’d been looking at the island from near where I was living for so long, I just needed to get over there.

After getting back a short while afterwards I paid a visit to my Dad who was cheerful as always to see me, and he got to see our new daughter for the first time.

Before I left, we spoke about the Isle of Wight and how I hadn’t known that he’d always wanted to retire and live over there.
At that time with a glimpse of maybe a way to make some money if everything went well, my goal was to try and get him over there one last time.
“And if you never get to make it” I said “ I’ll get there for you”

I’m glad I told him that.

We struggled through to the end of the year and I was hanging on by my fingernails.
The next year would either go one way or the other.
And that future was being decided for me out there somewhere.
I didn’t have long before I found out.

Love his voice. His music is just great.

Lisa Wright

I need to invest in a home sound system so I can hear this gorgeous voice the right way. A voice like this is a piece of art and it needs to be properly respected and appreciated ❤️

Owen Jennings

True 😊 pray to this godly man with his voice

Odin All farther

David McAllister

The amount of people thinking this was just released and didnt come from the absolute banger of an album from 2017 is lowkey kinda sad. If y'all haven't heard that album, GO LISTEN TO IT. An actual perfect album.
