Welcome to the years 2000 minus 25
Oh say can you smell her for the smoke
God's still up there laughin' so she's gotta be alive
Who says he can't take a dirty joke
Power isn't power does and power slips away
It's so easy to abuse
Who'd've thought them Arabs would've brought the USA
Just to give it to the Jews
Singing crime still don't pay just like it used to
And you know this time slips away till you die
Well I don't give a damn when I choose to
No it don't hurt so bad when you're high
Oh say does the future of the homesick and the brave
Even matter anymore
There ain't no more reason for them boys to run away
Than there was to fight before
Would you tell me why the hell we'd try
To win back in a war what we lasted in the last
Might just ain't as righteous as it used to be before
When your army's out of gas
Singing crime still don't pay...
Singing crime still don't pay...
Kris Kristofferson (born Christopher Kristofferson on June 22, 1936) is an American singer-songwriter, musician, and actor of Swedish descent. Considered one of the pillars of American country music, he has influenced generations of artists with his introspective and poetic songs that explore themes such as rural life, love, loss, and social struggle. After a military career and a brief period of study at Oxford University, Kristofferson moved to Nashville in 1966 to pursue music. He initially worked as a songwriter for other artists before emerging with his debut album "Kristofferson" (1970). His success came with songs like "Me and Bobby McGee", performed by Janis Joplin, and "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down", which became a country classic. Kristofferson has collaborated with world-renowned artists such as Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, and Willie Nelson, contributing to defining the outlaw country movement of the 1970s. Besides music, he has acted in numerous films, including "Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid" (1973) and "Blade Runner" (1982). Throughout his career, Kristofferson has won numerous awards, including a Grammy Award for Best Country Song in 1970. His songs continue to be loved and performed by artists of diverse generations.
