[00:12.11] Well this is how it starts
[00:13.21] Two lovers in the dark
[00:14.70] On the run, from the one
[00:15.99] That they called
[00:17.44] Sheriff Spark
[00:18.63] Six guns by their side and
[00:19.63] Bullets around the waist
[00:20.43] Two shots to the sky
[00:21.58] Sing the sound for the chase
[00:23.32] The safe was nearly empty and
[00:24.51] They were nearly free
[00:25.81] But were seen by the
[00:27.11] Good eye of the mean
[00:28.26] Billie Green
[00:29.00] And he screamed at the top of his lungs
[00:30.75] They're on the run
[00:31.74] It's the two wild siders
[00:32.84] Grab your horses and your guns
[00:35.32] I said I wish that
[00:36.80] We could stay here,
[00:38.44] But I fear our time has come
[00:41.19] We could ride out in the darkness
[00:44.07] Chasing the rising sun
[00:46.82] We gotta pack out bags this instant,
[00:49.62] We're heading south-bound to the next town
[00:52.30] And if we all arrive there so safely,
[00:55.20] Baby you can
[00:56.34] Lay me down...
[00:59.20] Lay me down...
[01:01.89] Lay me down...
[01:04.54] Lay me down...
[01:07.98] Well it's the story of the two
[01:09.37] Always on the move.
[01:10.82] They got nothing left to lose'
[01:12.21] Cept their guns and their wounds
[01:13.50] Now they're crossing borders
[01:15.31] Sheriffs posse on their tail
[01:16.65] They'd rather die together
[01:18.15] Than be stuck up in a cell.
[01:19.45] They drank up all the whiskey and
[01:20.64] They partied every night
[01:22.18] Like it could be the last
[01:23.43] The bounty said shoot on sight.
[01:24.82] So they chased the endless summer
[01:26.26] Though it came with the pride.
[01:27.56] They wouldn't stop running till
[01:29.55] They found a paradise.
[01:30.60] But the sheriff finally found them with his eyes seeing red.
[01:33.39] So the lovers had to shoot him down
[01:35.39] And fill em full of lead
[01:36.34] They were finally free
[01:37.83] To find a place to lay their head
[01:38.97] And when they finally did he looked at her and then he said.
[01:43.06] I said I think that we can stay here,
[01:45.85] Cause I feel our time has come.
[01:48.64] And we can walk down to the ocean,
[01:51.44] And sit with the rising sun.
[01:54.22] So unpack your bags this instant,
[01:57.01] No more running from town to town
[01:59.85] And now that we've arrive so safely,
[02:02.64] Baby you can
[02:03.30] Lay me down...
[02:06.64] Lay me down...
[02:09.33] Lay me down...
[02:12.02] Lay me down...
[02:15.40] Well you're my green-eyed girl
[02:16.91] And I've been running around with you.
[02:18.45] It's the afternoon and we got nothing left to do.
[02:20.99] So wipe the dirt off, eh
[02:22.58] Take shirt off,
[02:23.97] And we should go hit the cantina,
[02:25.27] We got work off.
[02:26.66] I said it's hot outside
[02:28.05] Let me go swimming in your eyes.
[02:29.60] We've been running for a while
[02:30.94] Why don't you lay it on and make smile.
[02:32.63] I could never ask for nothing better than this.
[02:34.92] It's just tequila and the beach, thats why its salty when we kiss.
[02:39.26] I said I think that we can stay here,
[02:42.00] Cause I feel our time has come.
[02:44.83] And we can walk down to the ocean,
[02:47.43] And sit with the rising sun.
[02:50.48] So unpack your bags this instant,
[02:53.21] No more running from town to town
[02:56.05] And now that we've arrive so safely,
[02:58.89] Baby you can
[02:59.58] Lay me down...
[03:02.87] Lay me down...
[03:05.46] Lay me down...
[03:08.60] Lay me down...
[03:11.29] Lay me down...
