Oh, why not release me? If love is a crime Then she's got me doin' time for sure I was a clean cut kid before you found me But soon you wrapped those arms around me Every dance was dirty and slow I can't resist the fine temptation A single kiss could charm a nation Straight to jail Without passing go Why don't you release me? Oh baby, release me Oh, if love is a crime Then she's got me doin' time for sure She's got me shakin' 'Cause the woman is unlawfully fine Won't be escaping While she's achin' for a little hard time There ain't no parole I'm forced to linger Put a ring onto your finger While you slam the door, baby, and slide the lock Those things you hide under the covers Would make the warden blush and shudder Why they're guaranteed to make this jailhouse rock Why don't you release me? Oh baby, release me Oh no, if love is a crime Then she's got me doin' time for sure Why not release me? Baby, release me Oh no, no, if love is a crime Then she's got me doin' time for sure www.toddsharpville.com @willharmonicawilde @WeAreRepertoire ℗ & © Repertoire Records 2023
