Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My baby works down at the Boulevard Cafe
Just a fine young man with big dreams tryin' to make his own way
The owner is this mean old bitch who degrades him everday
Then she fires him for no reason, don't wanna give him his last pay
[Verse 2]
I said, "I think I've committed murder and I think I've got away"
I'm hiding at my mothers house, come get me right away, right away
I have no intention of paying for my crime, don't fear
We're gonna get the next plane out of here and fly away, fly away
[Verse 3]
When he's down it breaks my heart to see him
So I figured I'd talk to her woman to woman
I walk in and she's countin' her cash
Got so much cash her office looks like a green pasture
I said, "Give him the little bit of money you owe him"
She said, "Get back bitch, I ain't givin' you shit"
I said: "You old bag, maybe you ain't heard, but them are fightin' words"
[Verse 4]
I've committed murder and I think I got away (I think I got away)
I'm hiding at my mothers house, come get me right away, right away (Right away, right away)
I have no intention of paying for my crime, don't fear (No, don't you fear)
We're gonna get the next plane out of here and fly away, fly away
(We're gonna get the next plane out of here and fly away, fly away)
[Verse 5]
I've committed murder and I think I got away (I think I got away)
I'm hiding at my mother's house, come get me right away, right away
I have no intention of paying for my crime, don't fear (Oh ,don't you fear)
We're gonna get the next plane out of here and fly away, fly away
(We're gonna get the next plane out of here)
[Verse 6]
And I don't feel bad about it
See baby, there was this struggle
And I don't feel bad about it
And as a result of this struggle
And I don't feel bad about it
But the good thing is, is that
And I don't feel bad about it
We don't have to struggle no more
[Verse 7]
With a suitcase full of money, we flew to a Jamaican paradise
One thing I've learned through all of this is having money sure is nice
Me and my baby got married, he's workin' hard to make his dreams come true
As far as regrets, I don't have any, would you?
[Verse 8]
I've committed murder and I think I got away (I think I got away)
I'm hiding at my mother's house, come get me right away, right away (Right away, right away)
I have no intention of paying for my crime, don't fear (No, don't you fear)
We're gonna get the next plane out of here and fly away, fly away
(We're gonna get the next plane out of here
I've committed murder and I think I got away (I, I think I got)
[Verse 9]
Murder, she wrote
Murder, she wrote
Murder, she wrote
Murder, she wrote
Murder, she wrote
Murder, she wrote
[Verse 10]
I've committed murder and I think I got away
I'm hiding at my mother's house, come get me right away, right away
I have no intention of paying for my crime, don't fear (Whoa, don't you fear)
We're gonna get the next plane out of here and fly away, fly away
(We're gonna get the next plane out of here and fly away)
[Verse 11]
I've committed murder (I, I think I got away)
Yeah-yeah-yeah
Don't you?
Gonna get it, right away, right away
No, I ain't payin' for no crime, I'm gonna
Fly, fly
