Crime of Passion

Hold me down and keep me back
I don't know what I'll do

My baby's with that man again
I thought that they was through

But now she's down a buku love
And here my heart lies ashen

Oh, lord, where were you in my crime of passion!

She warned me once and warned me twice
The third time was the harm

I'm pounding on her door again
But no cause for alarm

She don't think that we're a match
But I think we be matching

Oh, lord, where were you in my crime of passion!

Cause every day I'm waiting for my baby just to call
Ain't to proud to beg and surely not to proud to crawl
I guess I'm just unworthy...

Well I was in the neighborhood
I thought that I'd stop by

I walked in to her bedroom door
And much to my surprise

There they lie like lovers do
And then I got to smashin'

Oh, lord, where were you in my crime of passion!

Locked up in the cooler I'm the new kid in the hall
But seeing her be happy wasn't happiness at all
And someone yelled Orenthal

The warden said to shut your trap
And make love to that fool

I'm serving here one million years
Until the Earth is through

And now I sit a lonely man
Awaiting on his ration

Oh, lord, where were you in my crime of passion!
