Lyrics

She lied, she lied to the FBI
When she told him she was innocent of victimless crime
Now I don’t give a shit and I'd never drop dime
On my baby though she gave me to the FBI

I lied, I lied to the FBI
When I told them that I did it to save her hide
Told them that the plan for the heist was mine
Now I’m stuck and I'm fucked doing federal time
Locked deep inside I’m doing time for you (Woah)

Just got the letter saying we are through (Woa
And I don’t give a damn if I get out again
I’m doing time for you
She lied, she lied to the FBI
When she told him she was innocent of victimless crime
Now I don’t give a shit and I'd never drop dime
On my baby though she gave me to the FBI

I lied, I lied to the FBI
When I told them that I did it to save her hide
And I told them that the plan for the heist was mine
Now I’m stuck and I'm fucked doing federal time

Locked deep inside I’m doing time for you (Woah)
Just got the letter saying we are through (Woah)
And I don’t give a damn if I get out again
I’m doing time for you
My mistake I will take this secret with me to the grave
And I hope and I pray I see her face again one day
My mistake I will take this secret with me to the grave
And I hope and I pray I see her face again one day
She lied, she lied to the FBI (Woah, Woah) (4x)
She lied to the FBI
