Crime Never Pays

Crime never pays.
Now does it dear.
Crime never pays.
Now that's what they say.
And here you sit in jail.
For the rest of your days.
Cause crime never pays.
Your just gonna sit there and decay.
Cause crime never pays.

You took me for granted.
Way too many times.
You got mess up in this racket.
Your alibi I couldn't even back it.
Cause you told a lie.
Now little Jimmy won't even wear your jacket.
So I'm gonna leave and I'm just gonna pack it.
All because of a dirty old racket.

Crime never pays.
Now does it dear.
Crime never pays.
That's what they say.
And here you sit in jail.
For the rest of your days.
Cause crime never pays.
Your just gonna sit there and decay.
Cause crime never pays.

Gonna start a new life.
Just me and Jimmy
One day he will marry a wife.
And speak to Timmy.
Prove that he's a man.
It won't be about gimme gimme.
Said he's gonna have a daughter name Kimmy.
Promises to love them more than money.

Crime never pays.
Now does it dear.
Crime never pays.
That's what they say.
And here you sit in jail.
For the rest of your days.
Cause crime never pays.
Your just gonna sit there and decay.
Cause crime never pays.
