When I first met you

You were not house trained

A backwoods trier

The world's your oyster

Your time is mine

What's yours is mine all mine

There's no honour

Among thieves

So we worked together

A varied rich

and famous crime

You had your motives

I had mine

For a soul to find

Little piece rub off on mine

Trinkets, memorabilia

Diamonds for the taking

One man's treasure

never meant a thing

When I was housebreaking

Took a buckshot landing

>From my most famous client

Must have lost it in the fall

Came away empty handed

When I first met you

I was not housetrained
