John Hiatt - Trudy & Dave Lyrics
Whatever you dont follow that shot, she rang those words out with all she gotWith a baby and the laundry in the chevrolet, well he thought about following anywayBut he drove em to the strip mall laundromat,In his three day beard and his red man hatTrudy washed their bell bottom jeans, while that baby just sat there lookin meanChorus:Trudy and daveTheyre out of their mindsTrudy and daveTheyre out of their mindsWell david put a match to a lucky strikeAnd the smoke curled up round his head how he liked,It made him feel a little mysterioustil trudy said david honey, what about us?So he thought about them and those shots ringing outAnd other things he shouldnt be thinking aboutLike how it wasnt them at all, just life that was meanAnd how a twenty dollar pistol made him feel so cleanChorusDidnt mean to do it baby, but I did it for loveThe same shot his daddy heard before himA shot that can really blow you awayAnd when it is fired his mama told himDavid, youll follow it to your graveWell trudy and dave, those crazy kidsHad a baby of their own and you heard what they didIn the middle of a strip mall shots rang outShots heard all over the world no doubtcause it was there in the paper the very next daybout a couple and a baby and a chevroletWho shot up an automatic teller machineTook the money for the laundry and drove away cleanChorus
