` Criminal

He is a hustler, he's no good at all

He is a loser, he's a bum, bum, bum, bum

He lies, he bluffs, he's unreliable

He is a sucker with a gun, gun, gun, gun

I know you told me I should stay away

I know you said he's just a dog astray

He's a bad boy with a tainted heart

And even I know this ain't smart

But mama, I'm in love with a criminal

And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical

Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright

All reason aside, I just can't deny, love the guy

He is a villain by the devil's law

He is a killer just for fun, fun, fun, fun

The man's a snitch and unpredictable

He's got no conscience, he got none, none, none, none

Oh, I know, should've let go, but no

'Cause he's a bad boy with a tainted heart

And even I know this ain't smart

But mama, I'm in love with a criminal

And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical

Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright

All reason aside, I just can't deny, love the guy

And he's got my name

Tattooed on his arm, his lucky charm

So I guess it's okay, he's with me

And I hear people talk (People talk)

Try to make remarks, keep us apart

But I don't even hear, I don't care

'Cause mama, I'm in love with a criminal

And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical

Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright

All reason aside, I just can't deny, love the guy

(Oh I know-oh) Mama I'm in love with a criminal

(Should've let go) And this type of love isn't rational

(But no) It's physical

(Oh I know-oh) Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright

(Should've let go) All reason aside

(But no) I just can't deny, love the guy
