Well I met this dark eyed girl on the four AM train
The night was a resting place for all of her pain
Well she screamed one more night and I'll go insane
Well I sat next to her and I said," Some nights I feel the same"

Well we got to talking 'till the break of day
She told me she was running away, her past was a plague
She had a twenty dollar bill in her pocket in case she found a place to stay
And a loaded gun in the other for when she lost her way

Well maybe you're the type of girl I ought to leave be
'Cause god only knows, you'll be the death of me
But sometimes what you hope for isn't what you're gonna see
'Cause nothing on the other side is gonna come for free
Woah, Wo-ho-oh my dark eyed girl
Well don't you pull that trigger, my dark eyed girl

Well I met this dark eyed girl on the four AM train
She greeted me with tearful eyes, as sincere as the rain
She told me that she left her gun unloaded for a change
But of the twenty dollars in her pocket, only five remained

Well we got to talking until the break of day
She told me she'd been robbing banks from here to LA
But one day a cop shot her lover she didn't know what else to say
Well I told her gunfights are always a dangerous game to play

Well maybe you're the type of girl I ought to leave be
Because mama said a dark eyed girl would be the death of me
But sometimes a second chance can set you free
And so I got down on my knees and I asked, "Won't you marry me?"
Woah, dark eyed girl, won't you marry me?
Woah, dark eyed girl, won't you marry me?
