1
So you've decided to set me free
2
I've paid my debt to society
3
Fresh out of jail trying to make a new start
4
On the street with a bitter heart
5
But my past keeps on haunting me
6
There ain't no chance for a man with my history
7
Once a thief
8
Always a suspect
9
Once a liar
10
Never be believed
11
Will they ever forget that
12
I was once a thief?
13
I was out in the cold
14
I was soaked to the skin
15
I needed a home
16
And your heart took me in
17
Then I heard all the lies
18
And I lost my belief
19
You threw away my hope
20
And you called me a thief
21
So you've decided to set me free
22
I'm out of jail but you've still got the key
23
There was a time when I thought you respected me
24
But somehow you always suspected me
25
Once a thief
26
Always a suspect
27
Once a liar
28
Never be believed
29
Will they ever forget that
30
I was once a thief?
31
Instead of offering me charity,
32
You should've tried to put some faith in me
33
Instead of making me a better man,
34
You kept reminding me of what I am
35
Instead of offering me charity,
36
You should've tried to put some faith in me
37
How many years must a criminal pay?
38
Until he's old and his hair turns to gray
39
You smile at me
40
But I know underneath
41
You're thinking
42
Once a thief always a suspect.
43
Once a thief
44
Always a suspect
45
Once a liar
46
Never be believed
47
Will they ever forget that
48
I was once a thief?
