Steve Louw, Big Sky - The Story of Vicky and Dan
текст песни

I'll tell you a story 'bout Vicky and Dan
Vicky sold burgers from the back of her van
Served the office workers with a smile on her face
But she dreamt of Hollywood and getting out of this place
Dan rode his bike through the traffic all day
With a bag on his shoulders and a grin on his face
He played drums in a rock band at night
The girls all loved him, the guys said he's alright
Vicky and Dan
Vicky and Dan
She was a lover
He was a man
Vicky and Dan
Vicky and Dan
He was her boy
He was her man
He played for money with his sticks in his hand
He felt like a fighter, he felt like a man
Vicky served drinks behind the bar all night
When she saw Dan play, she felt alright
They shared an apartment at the top of some stairs
With a hole in the roof a bed and some chairs
Dan quit his job and played drums all day long
Then his band got a contract and some money for his songs
Vicky and Dan
Vicky and Dan
She loved him so
He was her man
Vicky and Dan
Vicky and Dan
He loves her just as much as he can
He went on the road and Vicky, she stayed home
She dreamt of a life that she'd never known
He called her at night to tell her the news
Then the calls stopped coming, she didn't know what to do
Vicky and Dan
Vicky and Dan
She just couldn't understand
Vicky and Dan
Vicky and Dan
She loved him so and he just ran
She went to the bank to draw out her all money
But the teller said no
I'm so sorry, honey
Her eyes were blazing her voice cut like a knife
She said you give my money
I'll give you your life
The bank was quiet
You could hear a pin drop
Then the Hollywood agent said you're going to the top
He signed her up right then and there
With a tear in his eyes as the people all cheered
Vicky and Dan
Vicky and Dan
She was a star, he had the boys in the band
Vicky and Dan
Vicky and Dan
He broke her heart but he was still her man
Dan saw Vicky from the back row
Of the movies in Bowsman where he was playing his show
He knew he'd thrown away the love of his life
He knew that Vicky should have been his wife
Walked out of the movies into the night
He never saw the snowplough coming from his right
Left him lying stiff at twenty below
On the plains of Montana Dan had played his last show
Vicky and Dan
Vicky and Dan
She loved him so
He was her man
Vicky and Dan
Vicky and Dan
He broke her heart but he was still her man
Vicky and Dan
Vicky and Dan
Why couldn't he just understand
Vicky and Dan
Vicky and Dan
When you find love take it with both hands
