Danny was a cowboy he was crazy on the draw
Darla was a working girl and she liked what she saw
Danny said, “Hey Darla, let me get you out of here”
Darla said, "Sit down Danny, and have another beer"
They were just two dreamers who couldn't make it out of Dodge
Who mistook madness for music and thought their life was a mirage
So one night in Tinsel Town, a bar on the main strip
He took her on the dance-floor, put his fingers on her lips
"Don't say yes or no just let me take you home tonight"
She bit his finger with a vengeance and left him holding it
They were just two sad souls who never saw the light of day
Who mistook misery for the way things must be
Two kids who never got away
