(R. Stewart, K. Savigar)On a hot summer's nightIn the year of '75Jimmy Doyle took his child brideAmanda, for a driveShe was only seventeenHe just lived to see her smileTheir commitment to each otherBurned like a forest fireOtis on the radio singing "Stand By Me"As a trooper pulled them overAnd said Jimmy where you beenSomeone matching your descriptionHas just robbed the liquor storeAmanda said "He's been with me"But they weren't listening anymoreDown at Precinct Number FiveThey questioned Jimmy through the nightThe sheriff said "He's gotta stand trial"Armed robbery is the chargeAmanda said "This cannot be"Gonna stay right here until you set him freeAnd I love himHere to eternityForeverUnto eternityOh God gave me somethingI must hold on toGonna hold on himNo matter what you doThe old courthouse was crowdedAs the judge reviewed the caseIn a year of re-electionHe was desperate to impressInnocent or guiltyHe saw an opportunityTo send Jimmy down for lifeTo the PenitentiaryDisbelief and angerAs they dragged him awayIn a cell below the courthouseThey beat him like a slaveBut his use of martial artsStruck a blow for libertyFelled a guard with a fist of ironAnd killed him instantlyAll the press surrounded AmandaComing down the courthouse stepsPleading for her young man's lifeAnd in a moment seen by millionsShe bowed her head and criedShow my man some mercyHe's the father of my childI love himHere to eternityForeverUnto eternityOh God gave me somethingI must hold on toGonna hold on himNo matter what you doI love himHere to eternityJimmy Doyle appeared againIn a second public trailFor the murder of a prison guardThey sentenced him to dieBut Amanda with her long red hairMade one last pleaAs the court fell into silenceShe cried out desperatelyThis man of mine is innocentAs one day I shall proveIt's an open case of self defenseAll this circumstantial evidenceYou place before your courtHas robbed me of my husbandForget I will notI love himHere to eternityForeverUnto eternityOh goodbye my Jimmy'Til we meet againIn a better world than thisI swear I'll clear your name'Cos I love youHere to eternity
