Lyrics Ain't No Crime - Live - Billy Joel

You got to open your eyes in the morning
Nine o'clock's coming without any warning
And you gotta get ready to go

You say you went out late last evening
Did a lot of drinking, come home stinking
And you went and fell asleep on the floor
Then your ol' lady comes and finds you sleeping
Starts into weeping about the hours you been keeping
And you better get your ass out the door

It ain't no crime
It's just human nature, happens all the time
It ain't no crime
Don't think twice about it, get it off your mind
It ain't no crime
(Oh, oh, woah)

You got to open your eyes in the morning
Nine o'clock's coming without any warning
You gotta get ready to go

Now you tell me you love somebody
And you'll love 'em forever, you might love 'em forever
But you won't like 'em all the time
Now you tell me you need somebody
For the rest of your life you might have somebody
But you won't want 'em every day

It ain't no crime
It's just human nature, happens all the time
It ain't no crime
I said it's good to get it on to get a load off your mind
It ain't no crime
(Oh, oh, woah)

I said it ain't no crime, no, no
Well, it ain't no crime
It's just human nature, happens all of the time
Don't you know, it ain't no crime?
(Oh, oh, woah)

You got to open your eyes in the morning
Nine o'clock is coming without any warning
And you gotta get ready to go

Just as surely as the wind keeps blowing
The grass keeps growing, you gotta keep going
Lord'll have mercy on your soul

(Good evening)
(Thank you)
