Don´t be bitchin´ honey
´Cos you´re holding all the money
And now we´re outlaws, running scared
And I don´t think it´s funny
Keep your fool on the gas now baby

Don´t you let ´em in
´Cos we just thieves and I don´t need
To be back on that chain again

Don´t you be complaining
´Cos you´re gonna do my brain in
We just trying to cop a feel
And I think the cops are gaining
Got that pedal to the metal baby
Don´t you let ´em win
´Cos we just thieves, and I don´t need
To be back on that chain again

Don´t shoot me down, I ain´t no violent man
Don´t put a .45 in my hand
I ain´t gonna do no time
I know I,ve been a fool
But please don´t send me down

I don´t want to spend my life locked up
Without no women around

Now we´re back on the street
In love with every whore I meet
´Cos money walks and money talks
And I can hardly keep my feet
Keep lookin´ over your shoulder baby
In case they zero in
´Cos we just thieves and I don´t need
To be back on that chain again

Police don´t shoot me down
I don´t want to die in the dust
I can´t make the scene where I die like a dog with
The crowd looking on disgust
We´re just kids with guns

American as apple pie
So don´t you put that hurt on me
I ain´t gonna do no time
We were just running scared
Everybody but us knew the game
We never had no reason to kill
But those people are dead just the same
