I was sittin' outside in the front yard Lawn chair, kiddie pool, soakin' up the sun Old man walks by and said, "We got this thing called ambition Why don't you buy a suit and go get you some?" Like he ain't got enough of his own business Now he's got to go mindin' mine Opportunity knocks and I miss it It ain't no crime, it ain't no crime If I wanna kick back and kill a little time It ain't no crime I was gettin' some pink in my color Next door the lady says, "Why you always layin' around? A fine you man like you should be married with some children Instead of all these honeys runnin' in and out" Like she ain't got enough of her own business Now she's got to go mindin' mine I don't have a lotta kids and a Mrs. It ain't no crime, it ain't no crime If I wanna kick back and steal a kiss sometime It ain't no crime If everybody minded their own business They'd be too busy to worry 'bout mine If I live life the way I wanna live it It ain't no crime, it ain't no crime If I wanna kick back and chill Or steal a kiss from a girl I will every time It ain't no crime, it ain't no crime, it ain't no crime
