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.
