Crime Don’t Pay Songtext
von Mike Ness

Drinking, gambling and women
Stealing hearts and playing with guns
But the law′s the law and baby that's a fact
And now I′m on the run
But this song ain't about none of the above
We're not punished for sins but by them
Gonna get myself a little passion play
But I can still hear them saying that crime don′t pay


Wow, my poor heart is aching
It never did before
It seems my indiscretion served a painful lesson
And I′m still begging for more
I tried to mix romance with deceit
A little pleasure now with my pain
And I felt the loss on judgment day
And I can still hear them saying that crime don't pay
Baby, crime don′t pay
Wow

Wow, pour yourself a drink now
Make it a double and chase it with tears
But take heed my friends to this warning I give
For you're faced with all your fears
I′d rather face ten men than have a broken heart
My crimes of passion have done me in
I'm sentenced to life each and every lonely day
And I can still hear you saying that crime don′t pay
Baby, crime don't pay

Wow

Baby, crime don't pay
Baby, crime don′t pay

Don′t sweat me, Daniel
