thompson richard - Shane And Dixie слова песни
Shane and Dixie they were two-bit crooksThey wanted to be famous like you read in booksShane had the brain and Dxie had the looks for gloryAs a bank robber Shane really hadn`t got a clueHe`d end up likely at the end of a nooseWhich was fine by Shane if the papers could use the storyCHORUSFame and love, fame and loveFame and love will never dieShane said to Dixie, we`re getting nowhereBut I`ve a fine idea if you love me, swearWe`ll be household names if we only dare, foreverHere`s two bullets in my old carbineOne is yours and the other is mineThen we`ll be happy till the end of time togetherCHORUSShe screams, she swearsShe tears her hairSaying, Shane this timeYou`ve lost your mindShane took aim with the 16-boreAnd Dixie lay dying down there on the floorShane was shaken but his purpose was more inspiredShane said, Lord what have I doneBut this victory is only halfway wonThen he put the barrel underneath his tongue and firedCHORUSThey found the bodies when the neighbours complainedShane was all over the walls like paintDixie looked bad but her heart beat faint but surelyWell they saved her life, they were just in timeAnd she turned her back on a life of crimeAnd she married the man who came to type out her storyO the news of the screws most generously gaveThe money helped to pay for Shane`s new graveAnd it looked so fine till the vandals sprayed it overTime went by and the weeds grew highAnd hid Shane`s grave from the curious eyeAnd maybe that`s why we forget those lines he told herCHORUS------------------------------------------------------------------------------
