(verse)
The kids are gone
And time is long
and old crime jones comes a-knocking once more
you made your bones
and built your home
then old crime jones comes a-knockin again
you kicked the dope
you learned to cope
and Old Crime Jones comes a-knockin once more
(bridge)
the voice he speaks with
ain't the voice of your fathers
the mouth he eats with
it ain't the mouth of a man
ba dum ba dum dum dum
(verse)
you read his book
the words got hooks
Old Crime Jones got your number for sure
a quiet tap
then a startling rap
that's Old Crime Jones a-poundin at your door
