[Cash:]
When his stolen gold has turned to rust,
Ketika emas curiannya berubah jadi karat,
He rides off in a cloud of dust,
Dia pergi dengan debu yang mengangkat,
Lookin' for a border he can cross.
Mencari perbatasan yang bisa dia lewati.
She'll stand by and watch him go,
Dia hanya bisa berdiri dan melihatnya pergi,
Wonderin' if he'll ever know,
Bertanya-tanya apakah dia akan pernah tahu,
The hurt she's feelin' now, and what they've lost.
Luka yang dia rasakan sekarang, dan apa yang telah mereka hilangkan.
[Jennings lead, the Highwaymen & backup singers:]
Angels love bad men. That's how it's always been.
Malaikat mencintai pria buruk. Begitulah selalu.
They give their whole hearts when they fall.
Mereka memberikan seluruh hati mereka saat jatuh cinta.
Angels love bad men. That's how it's always been.
Malaikat mencintai pria buruk. Begitulah selalu.
Love holds their hearts against the wall.
Cinta menahan hati mereka di dinding.
[Instrumental break.]
[Nelson:]
When his corporate day comes to an end,
Saat harinya di perusahaan berakhir,
He rides away in his Mercedes Benz.
Dia pergi dengan Mercedes Benz-nya.
Soon he's lost beneath the neon sky.
Tak lama dia hilang di bawah langit neon.
[Kristofferson:]
Outside of town, in their suburban home,
Di luar kota, di rumah pinggiran mereka,
She spends another night alone.
Dia menghabiskan malam lainnya sendirian.
Wonders what went wrong and wonders why.
Bertanya-tanya apa yang salah dan kenapa.
[Jennings lead, the Highwaymen & backup singers:]
Angels love bad men. That's how it's always been.

They give their whole hearts when they fall.
Mereka memberikan seluruh hati mereka saat jatuh cinta.
Angels love bad men. That's how it's always been.
Malaikat mencintai pria buruk. Begitulah selalu.
Love holds their hearts against the wall.
Cinta menahan hati mereka di dinding.
