She let me off with a warning
She didn't take me in
She let me go with a warning
Said, "Don't do that again"
She let me off with a warning
She didn't take me in
She let me go with a warning
I was stopped, I was stopped
I was stopped by a lady cop, I turned the wrong way
I couldn't touch my nose with my eyes closed
And I was at a loss for words to say to her
To make her see, it's not the brew that made me
Such a grinning fool, it was her personality
She left me standing on one leg when she drove away
No, I'm not a stork and I'm not a tipsy dork
But I don't even have a clue which way is up
Which way is down
I wish she'd come back and fill a ticket out
And I would tell her, "Please
Take me in, let me be with you again
Do I have to lead a life of crime
To see you one more time?"
She let me off with a warning
She didn't take me in
She let me go with a warning
Please take me to the station, don't leave me standing here
Well, I might do something rash, like cause a crash
I'm not responsible for things I might do to be with you
Come back, frisk me, read me my rights
Just don't sentence me to lonely nights
Take me in, let me be with you again
Do I have to lead a life of crime
To see you one more time?
Take me in, slap me on the wrist
Excuse me if I stare at your star
Oh, how happy I would be if you would put the cuffs on me
And throw me in the back of your car
She let me off with a warning
Don't do that again
Take me in, let me be with you again
Do I have to lead a life of crime
To see you one more time?
Take me in, let me be with you again
Do I have to lead a life of crime
To see you one more time?
She let me off with a warning
