Love in the First Degree

歌詞

Wade Bowen: I once thought 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 Brandy Clark: You came and I was so tempted To gamble on love just one time I never thought that I would get caught It seemed like the perfect crime Both: Baby, you left me defenseless But I've only got one plea Lock me away inside of your love Throw away the key I'm guilty of love in the first degree Wade Bowen: I thought it would be so simple Like a thousand times before Brandy Clark: 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 Wade Bowen: Go ahead and throw the book at me Both: If lovin' you's a crime I know that I'm as guilty as I can be Both: Baby, you left me defenseless 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 (Love in the first degree) Both: Oh yeah (Love in the first degree) Wade Bowen: Baby, you left me defenseless Brandy Clark: I've only got one plea Both: Lock me away inside of your love And throw away the key I'm guilty of love in the first degree (Love in the first degree) Both: Oh, yeah (Love in the first degree) Both: Oh, yeah, guilty (Love in the first degree) Both: Oh, yeah, guilty (Love in the first degree) Both: Ooh, yeah, I'm guilty
