21: KLEPTO

 (By Wes Collins and Marlin Collins)

         

I'm a klepto, running from the heat.

I'm a klepto, the only things fast are my feet.

​

Got to run away, just as fast as I can.

I got to run away, to keep ahead of the man

​

Stealing ain't right, but there's nothing to do on a Saturday night.

Taking what I can, holdin' in my hot little hand.

​

The cops came, they wanted to look and see,

Exactly, just what I had on me.

​

They really made me mad, when they confiscated all I had.

I said I'd put it back, if they'd just cut me some slack.

​

Stealing ain't right, but there's nothing to do on a Saturday night.

Taking what I can, holdin' in my hot little hand.

​

They took me down to jail, couldn't find no one to put up bail.

They told me with a sneer, that I might rot away in here.

​

My friends were really nice, but I didn't take their advice.

I can't do what I should, cause when I steal it feels so good.

​

Stealing ain't right, but there's nothing to do on a Saturday night.

Taking what I can, holdin' in my hot little hand.

​

I'm a kleptomaniac, ain't putting nothing back (4 times )

​

Ain't putting nothing back (2 times )

Got off on the wrong track

Ain't putting nothing back
