[ar:The Dirty Heads]
[00:01.40] Ho ohh woah ho ho no ohhh
[00:04.250] hoo ooh oh
[00:06.250] oh oooh ooh
[00:09.860] Well this is how it starts two lovers in the dark
[00:13.310] on the run from the one that they call Sheriff Sparks
[00:16.260] six guns by the side and bullets 'round their waist
[00:19.120] two shots to the sky signal sign for the chase
[00:21.720] The safe is nearly empty and they were nearly free
[00:23.570] but were seen by the good eye of the mean Billy green
[00:27.730] and he screamed at the top of his lungs "they're on the run
[00:31.40] It's the two outsiders grab your holsters and your guns"
[00:33.290] I said I wish that we could stay here
[00:37.590] but I fear our time has come
[00:40.150] We could ride out in the darkness
[00:43.200] chasing the rising sun
[00:46.100] We gotta pack our bags this instant
[00:48.950] we're headin'southbound to the next town
[00:51.460] and if we arrive there so safely
[00:54.110] baby you could lay me down
[00:58.410] Lay me downnn
[01:01.170] Lay me dowahownnn
[01:04.20] Lay me downnnnnn
[01:07.310] Well its the story of the two,always on the move
[01:09.770] they got nothing left to lose 'cept their guns and their wounds
[01:12.670] Now they're crossing borders sheriff's posse on their tail
[01:15.920] They'd rather die together than be stuck up in a cell
[01:18.720] They drank up all the whiskey and they partied every night
[01:21.20] like it could be the last,the bounty said to 'shoot on sight'
[01:24.470] They're chasing in the summer,knew it came with a price
[01:27.20] They wouldn't stop running til they found the paradise
[01:29.230] but the sheriff finally found them with his eyes seeing red
[01:32.980] so the lovers had to shoot him down and fill him full of lead
[01:35.980] they were finally free to find a place to lay their head
[01:38.880] and when he finally did he looked at her and he said...
[01:41.830] I said I think that we can stay here
[01:45.290] cuz I feel our time has come
[01:47.690] and we can walk down to the ocean
[01:50.790] and sit with the rising sun
[01:53.790] So unpack your bags this instant
[01:56.440] No more running from town to town
[01:59.340] and now that we've arrived so safely
[02:02.140] baby you can lay me down
[02:04.140] Lay me downnn
[02:06.90] Lay me dowahownnn
[02:08.890] Lay me downnnnnnnnnn
[02:15.32] Well you're my green eyed girl and I been running around with you
[02:17.632] its the afternoon and we got nothing left to do
[02:20.782] so wipe the dirt off or take your shirt off
[02:23.292] and we should go hit the cantina;we got work off
[02:25.742] I said its hot outside,let me go swimming in your eyes
[02:29.142] we been running for awhile why don't you lay down make me smile
[02:32.302] I could never ask for nothing better than this
[02:34.352] it's just tequila and the beach,it's quite salty when we kiss
[02:37.952] I said I think that we can stay here
[02:41.542] cuz I feel our time has come
[02:44.542] and we can walk down to the ocean
[02:47.392] and sit with the rising sun
[02:50.292] so unpack your bags this instant
[02:52.952] no more running from town to town
[02:55.752] and now that we've arrived so safely
[02:58.402] baby you can lay me down
[03:02.652] lay me downnn
