lyrics

I’m a Christian, and I don’t believe it’s right for someone to steal
But I’m a man with a family to provide for, that’s the deal

If I could find a way, an honest way
I swear to you I’d take the job today
But they don’t want me or nobody like me
With a tenth grade education and a rap sheet

So I take unnecessary things
From those who can afford to lose their necklaces and rings
I ain’t no Jesse James, I just looked my options through
I got two kids and a wife who deserve a decent life
So I do what I gotta do

There’s a guy up near Bakersfield who likes what I got to sell
So I ain’t scraping by no more, cleaning toilets in some rich man’s hotel

But sometimes when I’m winding through the grapevine
Driving north across that Kern County line
I keep hoping for blue lights coming up behind
Coming to relieve all this pressure in my mind

And yet I take unnecessary things
From those who can afford to lose their necklaces and rings
I ain’t no Jesse James, I just looked my options through
I got two kids and a wife who deserve a decent life
So I do what I gotta do
