You got to open your eyes in the morning
Nine o´clock comin´ with out any warnin´
And you gotta get ready to go
You say you went out late last evenin´
Did a lot of drinkin´
Come home stinkin´
And you went and fell asleep on the floor
And then your lady comes and finds you asleepin´
Starts in to weepin´ ´bout the hours you been keepin´
And you better get your ass out the door

Ain´t no crime
Yeah it´s good to get it on to get a load off your mind
It ain´t no crime
Well everybody gets that way some time
It aint´ no crime

You got to open your eyes in the morning
Nine o´clock comin´ with out any warnin´
And you gotta get ready to go
Well now you tell me you love somebody
And you´ll love ´em forever
You may love ´em forever
But you won´t like ´em all of the time
Well 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

Ain´t no crime
Well it´s just human nature happens all the time
It ain´t no crime
Well don´t think twice about gettin´ it off your mind
Ain´t no crime

Ain´t no crime
Well it´s good to get a load get a load off your mind
It ain´t no crime
Well it´s just human nature happens all the time
It ain´t no crime

You got to open your eyes in the morning
Nine o´clock comin´ with out any warnin´
And you gotta get ready to go
And just as surely as the wind keeps blowin´
The grass keeps growin´
You gotta keep goin´
And the Lord have mercy on your soul
