Crime Of Passion

(アルバム： Wild-Eyed Dream - 1987)

She had a ragtop El Dorado tuck and roll pleat
She picked me up in Colorado
And put me right in the driver's seat
I said, I got no money
You know, I got no job
She said, I tell you what, honey
Let's find a place to rob

Now, the man at the station's name was Jim
I saw it sewed on his shirt
I told him, do what I say
You'll live another day
Nobody's gotta get hurt

It was the crime of passion
She took me by the heart when she took me by the hand
Crime of passion
A beautiful woman and a desperate man

Well, I thought the thing was over
She was counting the cash
When an unmarked Chevy Nova
Made the blue lights flash

She said, officer, won't you help me, please
I looked at her and she was pointing at me
You see, Jim at the station played the part
And I talked a little perjury
He went to great pains to leave out her name
He was her future ex-husband, can't you see

It was the crime of passion
She took me by the heart when she took me by the hand
Crime of passion
A beautiful woman and a desperate man

Now, the man at the station's name was Joe
I saw it on the badge on his shirt
He said, you'll never get away
But do what we say
Nobody has to get hurt

It was the crime of passion
She took me by the heart when she took me by the hand
Crime of passion
A beautiful woman and a desperate man

Crime of passion
She took me by the heart when she took me by the hand
Crime of passion
A beautiful woman and a desperate man

It was the crime of passion
It's just a crime of passion
