Lyrics
It?s a Crime (Kuss/Saretsky)
There?s a man who?s lost his trade
He?s got rent that he can?t pay
Been fightin? all his life ? his dollars come in dimes
Been fightin? all his life and it?s a crime
I saw a woman on the street
She had no shoes on her feet
It must have been so hard ? cut down in her prime
Cut down in her prime and it?s a crime
It?s a crime (2) Yeah, yeah, yeah
Saw a child without a home
She was scared and all alone
See it on her face ? she?s been tired of cryin?
Look into her eyes and it?s a crime
Chorus
People needin? to be fed
In the belly and the head
Can?t we see we?re runnin? out of time
Runnin? out of time and it?s a crime
Chorus
