The protagonist is talking to a judge in the morning and asks how the judge is doing before admitting that he's in trouble and wants to be put away. He explains that a woman showed interest in him and he couldn't resist, so he let it happen. In the chorus, he insists that he didn't do anything wrong, wasn't present, didn't want it, and wouldn't dare to do it.

Later, the protagonist returns to the judge in the morning and admits he's in trouble again, so he's going back to prison. He shares that he found a car but couldn't afford it, so he fell in love with it and took it without permission. In the chorus, he repeats that he didn't do anything wrong, wasn't present, didn't want it, and wouldn't dare to do it.

In the final verse, the protagonist says that being in Alcatraz feels like home to him, as he is always wanted and never alone. He then mentions that San Quentin is a great place to be, and he's so happy there that he doesn't want to be free. In the chorus, he repeats that he didn't do anything wrong, wasn't present, didn't want it, and wouldn't dare to do it.
