He lies, he bluffs, he's unreliable He is a sucker with a gun, gun, gun, gun

I know you told me I should stay away I know you said he's just a dog astray

He is a bad boy with a tainted heart And even I know this ain't smart

But mama I'm in love with a criminal And this type of love isn't rational, it's

physical Mama please don't cry, I will be alright

All reason aside I just can't deny, I love that guy

He is a villain of the devil’s law He is a killer just for fun, fun, fun, fun

That man's a snitch and unpredictable He's got no conscious, he got none, none,

none, none All I know, should've let go, but no

'Cause he's a bad boy with a tainted heart And even I know this ain't smart

But mama I'm in love with a criminal And this type of love isn't rational, it's

physical Mama please don't cry, I will be alright

All reason aside I just can't deny, I love that guy

And he's got my name Tattooed on his arm

His lucky charm So I guess it's okay

He's with me And I hear people talk

Trying to make remarks Keep us apart

But I don't even hear I don't care

'Cause mama I'm in love with a criminal And this type of love isn't rational, it's

physical Mama please don't cry, I will be alright

All reason aside I just can't deny, I love that guy

'Cause mama I'm in love with a criminal And this type of love isn't rational, it's

physical Mama please don't cry, I will be alright

All reason aside I just can't deny, I love that guy
