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 a dog astray
He is 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, I love the guy
Ohh, ohh, ohh
He is a villain by the devil's law (uh uh)
He is a killer just for fun, fun, fun, fun
That man's a snitch and unpredictable (uh uh)
He's got no conscience, he got none, none, none, none
All 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, I love the guy
Mama I'm in love with a criminal (I'm in love with a criminal)
And this type of love isn't rational
It's physical (it isn't rational)
Mama please don't cry, I will be alright (I will be alright)
All reason aside I just can't deny, I love the guy
Ohh, ohh, ohh
