Verse 1 – Female]
Met you in a backstreet bar, neon bleeding red
You said, “Baby, you look dangerous,”
I said, “So’s the price on your head.”
You had a crooked kind of smile,
Gunpowder on your sleeve
I like my lovers reckless
With nothing left to leave
[Verse 2 – Male]
You were lipstick and a switchblade,
High heels on cracked concrete
Said you were done with small-time boys
Who scare too damn easy on the street
You slid into my shotgun seat
Like you owned the night
Said, “If we’re going down, cowboy,
Let’s go down in headlights.”
[Pre-Chorus – Both]
We don’t say forever
We don’t say amen
We just count the cash
And do it all again
[Chorus – Both]
We’re blood on the dashboard,
Smoke in the sky
Kiss me like we’re guilty
Laughing while sirens cry
If loving you’s a crime, babe
Then lock me inside
We’re hell-bound believers
Just you and I
[Verse 3 – Female]
I like the way you grab my waist
Like you’re claiming stolen land
Rough hands, bad plans
And a trigger steady in your hand
We fight like thunder rolling
Then make up in the dark
You leave your teeth marks on my neck
I leave mine on your heart
[Verse 4 – Male]
You taste like danger and cheap red wine
Like trouble I can’t refuse
You push me up against the wall
Say, “Show me what we’ve got to lose.”
We ain’t soft, we ain’t clean
We don’t beg, we don’t plead
We take what we want
We satisfy the need
[Pre-Chorus – Both]
No white-picket fences
No settling down
Just a stolen V8
And the edge of town
[Chorus – Both]
We’re blood on the dashboard,
Dust on the line
You bite my lip till it bleeds
Say, “Baby, you’re mine.”
If the law comes knocking
We won’t run and hide
We’ll go out swinging
Side by side
[Bridge – Call & Response]
Female: If they catch us at the border?
Male: I’ll be grinning in chains
Male: If the bullets start flying?
Female: I’ll be calling your name
Both: We don’t fear the reaper
We don’t beg for mercy
We were born for the fire
And to love this dirty
[Breakdown – Slow, Gritty]
Female (low): You ever scared?
Male (soft laugh): Only of losing you.
Female: Then don’t.
Male: Not a damn chance.
[Final Chorus – Big, Gritty Harmony]
We’re blood on the dashboard,
Flames in the night
Hold me like tomorrow
Ain’t got the right
To take what we built
In sin and in pride
If we burn, we burn
Side by side
[Outro – Raw]
Female: Start the engine.
Male: Load the gun.
Both: Baby, we already won.
