Two kids get busted
One of them's broke
And poor kid goes to prison
But the rich kid don't
It shouldn't be a crime to be poor
It shouldn't be a crime
It shouldn't be a crime to be poor
No no no
Poor folks go to prison
And rich folks get forgiven
It shouldn't be a crime to be poor
No no no
ย
Steal a million dollars
You might pay a fine
Steal a pack of gum
And you will do hard time
It shouldn't be a crime to be poor
It shouldn't be a crime
It shouldn't be a crime to be poor
No no no
Poor folks go to prison
And rich folks get forgiven
It shouldn't be a crime to be poor
No no no
ย
Don't matter if you're guilty
If you can't make the bail
You get that public lawyer
And you're going to jail
It shouldn't be a crime to be poor
It shouldn't be a crime
It shouldn't be a crime to be poor
No no no
Poor folks go to prison
And rich folks get forgiven
It shouldn't be a crime to be poor
No no no
ย
Fish without a license
Get cuffs on your wrist
Kill the whole river
And it's case dismissed
It shouldn't be a crime to be poor
It shouldn't be a crime
It shouldn't be a crime to be poor
No no no
Poor folks go to prison
And rich folks get forgiven
It shouldn't be a crime to be poor
No no no
