Lyrics
I know a cat by the name of Maurice
He's all the time runnin' from the police
Every time you see him up to some old dirty trick
And he's got the nerve to think he's slick
But he ain't
He messes up every time
Oh, to tell you the truth
The dude can't even do wrong right
Maurice took a notion to rip off the house down the street
Heard they had a whole lots of real good weed
He snuck around back and made it in the house okay, and he
Located the stash and he rolled up a jay
He got high and hungry, wanted somethin' to eat
Went in the kitchen and ate up every damn thing he could see
But, man, between the food and the weed
He sat down on the couch and he went to sleep
He got caught
In the middle of the night
Oh, ain't it a shame
The dude can't even do wrong right
Got him a new car, went out to celebrate
Got hung up at the bar and started runnin' late
Jumped back in his ride and hit the highway, started to roll
He said hundred miles an hour, whoo, look at me go
Thought he had everything under control
I'm talkin' the Highway Patrol
He got caught
In the middle of the night
Oh, Lord have mercy
The dude can't even do wrong right, oh
Maurice was a dog, gon' tryin' to cheat on his wife
He said, "I believe I'll get me a little somethin' on the side"
Found him a woman way across town
He said, "I'll be real cool this time and keep it on the low down"
Thought he had her fooled, he was doin' alright
But what goes on in the dark will surely come to light
He got caught
In the middle of the night
Ah, what did I tell ya
The dude can't even do wrong right
No, can't do wrong right
No
