I was into bein' out on my own   I could take love or leave it alone   That's 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 didn't gamble at all   You knew exactly how the cards would fall   You bet your heart, but as I recall   I didn't 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, don'cha 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
