I've Committed Murder

Lyrics

My baby works down at the boulevard café
 Just a fine young man with big dreams
 Trying to make his own way
 The owner is this mean ol' bitch
 Who degrades him everyday
 Then she fires him for no reason
 Don't wanna give him his last pay
 I said, "I've committed murder and I think I got away"
 I'm hiding at my mother's house, come get me right away, right away
 I have no intention of paying for my crimes, don't fear
 We're gonna get the next plane outta here and fly away, fly away
 When he's down it breaks my heart to see him
 So I figured, I'd talk to her, woman-to-woman
 I walk in and she's countin' her cash
 Got so much cash, her office looks like a green pasture
 I said, "Give him a little bit of money you owe him"
 She said, "Get back bitch, I ain't givin' you shit"
 I said, "You ol' bag, maybe you ain't heard but them are fightin' words"
 I've committed murder and I think I got away
 I'm hiding at my mother's house, come get me right away, right away
 I have no intention of paying for my crime, don't fear
 We're gonna get the next plane outta here and fly away, fly away
 I've committed murder and I think I got away
 I'm hiding at my mother's house, come get me right away, right away
 I have no intention of paying for my crime, don't fear
 We're gonna get the next plane outta here and fly away, fly away
 (And I don't feel bad about it) see baby, there was this struggle
 (And I don't feel bad about it) and as a result of this struggle
 (And I don't feel bad about it) but the good thing is, is that
 (And I don't feel bad about it) we don't have to struggle no more
 With a suitcase full of money we flew to a Jamaican paradise
 One thing I've learned through all of this is
 Having money sure is nice
 Me and my baby got married
 He's working hard to make his dreams come true
 As far as regrets, I don't have any
 Would you?
 I've committed murder and I think I got away
 I'm hiding at my mother's house, come get me right away, right away
 I have no intention of paying for my crimes, don't fear
 We're gonna get the next plane outta here and fly away, fly away
 I've committed murder and I think I got away
 Murder, she wrote
 Murder, she wrote
 Murder, she wrote
 Murder, she wrote
 Murder, she wrote
 Murder, she wrote
 I've committed murder and I think I got away
 I'm hiding at my mother's house, come get me right away, right away
 I have no intention of paying for my crimes, don't fear
 We're gonna get the next plane outta here and fly away, fly away
 I've committed murder
 Don't you
 Don't get right away, right away
 No, get before, no cry
 Fly, fly
