Do you swear to tell the truth and nothing but the truth?
Yes, I swear
Verse 1
Your Honor, I'm not a kid
Your Honor, I'm not a coward
And I cry only because I'm human
And my innocence is at risk in your hands
Attention, jury, I've never sworn in vain
I swear on my mama, someone made up lies
Trying to hurt me
But I haven't done anything
Here's clear proof that you were indeed unfaithful
He's guilty! He's guilty!
Hey, hey, hey, silence
Order in the court
Verse 2
Saturday, I went out at night
I had a couple drinks too many
But I don't know how the hell there's perfume on my shirt
And a lipstick stain
Prechorus 2
I swear to tell only the truth
Nothing but the truth, I'm not lying
I'm not guilty of what they're blaming me for
I don't wanna lose her love
Chorus 2
Innocent, in a helpless trial
About to lose the woman I love the most
Because of people's slander
I plead innocent, a naïve decent guy
Who's felt temptations
But I've never cheated on her, I love her blindly
I plead innocent
Hey, listen to Romeo's words
Prechorus 3
I swear to tell only the truth
Nothing but the truth, I'm not lying
I'm not guilty of what they're blaming me for
I don't wanna lose her love
Chorus 3
Innocent, in a helpless trial
About to lose the woman I love the most
Because of people's slander
I plead innocent, a naïve decent guy
Who's felt temptations
But I've never cheated on her, I love her blindly
I plead innocent
Who owes nothing fears nothing
Copy? Let's go! The king
Tasty
Chorus 4
Innocent, in a helpless trial
About to lose the woman I love the most
Because of people's slander
Your Honor, innocent, a naïve decent guy
Who's felt temptations
But I've never cheated on her, I love her blindly
I plead innocent

SONG MEANING

Picture a lively courtroom where the judge, jury, and even the bailiff are swaying to a bachata beat. That is the scene Romeo Santos sets in “Inocente,” a dramatic love trial that blends Dominican passion with New York swagger. The singer takes the witness stand, tearfully insisting he is not guilty of cheating, even when a lipstick stain and a lingering perfume threaten to betray him. The song becomes a playful yet earnest plea: gossip may be loud, evidence may look damning, but his heart has never strayed from the woman he adores.

Behind the catchy guitar riffs, Romeo tackles the universal fear of losing love to rumors and misunderstandings. He admits to temptation, calls himself a mere mortal, and reminds us that “el que nada debe, nada teme” — if you owe nothing, you fear nothing. By the final chorus, listeners are left rooting for his acquittal, tapping their feet while pondering the gray areas between appearance and truth. “Inocente” is more than a courtroom fantasy; it is an invitation to trust, forgive, and dance through the trials of love.
