I was into bein out on my own

I could take love or leave it alone

Thats how you get when you're hurt to the bone

One too many times

I had this heart of mine locked away

I kept my guard up night an day

I had enough of the games they play

Out there on the line

It was the crime of the century

You played robin hood an rescued me

Ali baba an the forty thieves

Ain't got nothin on you

You came on like jesse james

You stole my heart like you were robbin trains

I'm gonna lock you up for life with me

It was the crime of the century

You stacked the deck you didnt gamble at all

You knew exactly how the cards would fall

You bet your heart but as I recall

I didnt even stand a chance

I bet you had an ace up your sleeve

An here I thought that you were so naive

You took my hand an made me believe

In love an real romance

It was the crime of the century

You played robin hood an rescued me

Ali baba an the forty thieves

Ain't got nothin on you

You came on like jesse james

You stole my heart like you were robbin trains

I'm gonna lock you up for life with me

It was the crime of the century

An if I live to be a hundred an one

Honey doncha think that it would be fun

To do it all over again

It was the crime of the century

You played robin hood an rescued me

Ali baba an the forty thieves

Ain't got nothin on you

You came on like jesse james

You stole my heart like you were robbin trains

I'm gonna lock you up for life with me

It was the crime of the century

I'm gonna lock you up and throw away the key

It was the crime of the century

It was love in the third degree

It was the crime of the century
