Alabama - Love in the First Degree lyrics

Words and Music by Jim Hurt and Tim DuBois

-I once thopught of love as a prison a place I didn't want to be.

So long ago I made a decision to be footloose and fancy free.

But you cam I was so tempted to gamble on love just one time.

I never thought I would get caught.

It seemed liek the perfect crime.

Chorus:

Baby, you left me defneseless.

I've only got one plea.

Lock me away inside of your love and throw away the key.

I'm guilty of love in the first degree.

I thought it would be so simple, like a thousand times before.

I'd take what I wanted and just walk away, but I never made it to the door.

Now babe, I'm not beggin' for mercy.

Go ahead and throw the book at me.

If lovin' you's a crime, I know that I'm as guilty as a man can be.

Chorus

Oh yeah. Oh yeah.

Chorus

Oh yeah. Love in the first degree.

Love in the first degree.

Love in the first degree.
