Whatever you don't follow that shot, she rang those words out with all she got
Apapun yang kau lakukan, jangan ikuti tembakan itu, dia mengucapkan kata-kata itu dengan segenap tenaga yang dia punya

With a baby and the laundry in the Chevrolet, well he thought about following anyway
Dengan bayi dan cucian di dalam Chevrolet, dia tetap berpikir untuk mengikutinya

But he drove 'em to the strip mall laundromat,
Tapi dia mengantar mereka ke laundromat di pusat perbelanjaan

In his three day beard and his red man hat
Dengan janggut tiga hari dan topi merahnya

Trudy washed their bell bottom jeans, while that baby just sat there lookin' mean
Trudy mencuci celana bell bottom mereka, sementara bayi itu hanya duduk di sana dengan tatapan garang

[Chorus:]
[Refrain:]
Trudy and Dave
Trudy dan Dave
They're out of their minds
Mereka sudah gila
Trudy and Dave
Trudy dan Dave
They're out of their minds
Mereka sudah gila

Well David put a match to a Lucky Strike
Nah, David menyalakan sebatang rokok Lucky Strike

And the smoke curled up 'round his head how he liked,
Dan asapnya melingkar di kepalanya, dia suka begitu

It made him feel a little mysterious
Itu membuatnya merasa sedikit misterius

'Til Trudy said "David honey, what about us?"
Sampai Trudy berkata, "David sayang, bagaimana dengan kita?"

So he thought about them and those shots ringing out
Jadi dia memikirkan tentang mereka dan tembakan yang berbunyi

And other things he shouldn't be thinking about
Dan hal-hal lain yang seharusnya tidak dia pikirkan

Like how it wasn't them at all, just life that was mean
Seperti bagaimana itu bukan mereka sama sekali, hanya kehidupan yang kejam

And how a twenty dollar pistol made him feel so clean
Dan bagaimana pistol dua puluh dolar itu membuatnya merasa bersih

[Chorus]
[Refrain]

Didn't mean to do it baby, but I did it for love
Tidak bermaksud melakukannya sayang, tapi aku melakukannya karena cinta

The same shot his Daddy heard before him
Tembakan yang sama yang didengar ayahnya sebelumnya

A shot that can really blow you away
Sebuah tembakan yang bisa benar-benar membuatmu terbang

And when it is fired his mama told him
Dan ketika itu ditembakkan, ibunya memberitahunya

"David, you'll follow it to your grave"
"David, kau akan mengikutinya sampai ke kuburmu"

Well Trudy and Dave, those crazy kids
Nah, Trudy dan Dave, anak-anak gila itu

Had a baby of their own and you heard what they did
Mereka punya bayi sendiri dan kau tahu apa yang mereka lakukan

In the middle of a strip mall shots rang out
Di tengah pusat perbelanjaan, tembakan berbunyi

Shots heard all over the world no doubt
Tembakan yang terdengar di seluruh dunia, tanpa diragukan lagi

'Cause it was there in the paper the very next day
Karena itu ada di koran keesokan harinya

'Bout a couple and a baby and a Chevrolet
Tentang sepasang kekasih dan seorang bayi serta Chevrolet

Who shot up an automatic teller machine
Yang menembaki mesin ATM

Took the money for the laundry and drove away clean
Mengambil uang untuk cucian dan pergi dengan bersih

[Chorus]
[Refrain]
