[Verse: Buddy Guy]
You lied and you cheated
Girl, there's no excuse
That's criminal behavior
But you still only lose

[Chorus: Buddy Guy]
You did the crime
But I'm the one doin' the time
Spend the rest of my life
Without you in these arms of mine

[Verse: Buddy Guy]
Guilt in your heart
Gult in your soul
But the joys of love
Give me life without parole

[Chorus: Buddy Guy]
You did the crime
But I'm the one doin' the time (Yes, I am)
Spend the rest of my life
Without you in these arms of mine (What a shame)

[Guitar Solo]
(Yeah)
(Oh, shoot)
[Verse: Buddy Guy]
Cold-hearted lover
In the first degree
You got away with murder
And I'll never be free

[Chorus: Buddy Guy]
You did the crime
But I'm the one doin' the time (Without you)
Spend the rest of my life
Without you in these arms of mine

[Harmonica Solo: Mick Jagger & Buddy Guy]
That's a hard pill to swallow
