Shane and Dixie Richard Thompson

[Verse 1]
Oh, Shane and Dixie they were two-bit crooks
They wanted to be famous like you read in books
Shane had the brain and Dixie had the looks for glory
As a bank robber Shane really wasn't no use
He'd end up likely at the end of a noose
Which was fine by Shane if the papers could use the story

[Chorus]
Fame and love, fame and love
Fame and love will never die
Fame and love, fame and love
Fame and love will never die
Never die, never die

[Verse 2]
Well, Shane says to Dixie, "We're getting nowhere
I've a fine idea if you love me, swear
We'd be household names if we only dare, forever
Here's two bullets in my old carbine
One is yours and the other is mine
They'll find us there at the scene of the crime together"

[Chorus]
Fame and love, fame and love
Fame and love will never die
Fame and love, fame and love
La da da da da will never die
Never die
