Eagles - Doolin Dalton Lyrics
G. Frey, J. Browne, D. Henley, J.D. Souther)

They were doolin, doolin-dalton
High or low, it was the same
Easy money, and faithless women
Red eye whiskey for the pain.

Go down little dalton, it must be God's will
Two brothers lyin dead in Coffeeville.
Two voices call to you from where they stood,
"Lay down your lawbooks now, they're no damn good."

Better keep on movin, doolin-dalton
Till your shadow sets you free.
And if you're fast, and if you're lucky,
You will never see that hangin tree.

Well the towns lay out across the dusty plain
Like graveyards filled with tombstones waitin for the names
And a man could use his back or use his brains
But some just went stir-crazy Lord cause nothin ever changed

Till they're doolin Neville Dalton
He was workin cheap, just buyin time
And then he laughed and said I'm goin
And so he left that peaceful life behind

totaly the best tune they ever did....

[BroOmnipotent]

@rodhothotrodd Bandits who got killed, incidentally, at Coffeville during a failed bank job. iirc there were several Daltons, brothers.

[TSkkristen]

They tried to rob three banks at once

[YesImOneOFMany]

so.. in other words, they were tough because they would rob banks. That would make "Bernie" Madoff a ... tough guy, right?. Well I guess not because he didn´t get shot.

@rolgor... thanks for the info.

@YesImOneOFMany No ignorance, it's just ancient history. The Daltons were an outlaw group like the james gang. Famous in the west. They were tough hard men, the kind this country doesn't make anymore. They tried to rob a bank in coffeyville Kansas and got shot to pieces. This was a time after the civil war. I beleive one of them went down with 20 something bullets in him and lived. Tough men.

@dew4j ... and what is this song about? (excuse my ignorance)

[dew4j]

Incredable song!!! The Eagles is one of the best to ever be!!!!!

[hawkins19601]

the eagles was incrdible. they could put music to a shopping list. and it would be a big hit. and every piece of music they wrote is a clasic today. i started listen to the eagles back in 1970 and im still hooked.
