We ditched the car in Vegas
Hitch-hiked to LA
And said "what now? What we gonna do?"
San Diego seemed an option
There were nine state's worth of cops
Who were really not all that far behind
Threw our passports in a trashcan
Headed for the border
Take our chance in the gringo line
Checking out was pretty easy
Getting in a bit more costly
Fifty bucks. Now it's party time

And from that day she's had no name
My girl with the big dark eyes
She'd followed me, all the way
And I'd never wondered why.

I'd stolen fifty million dollars
And no one even bothered
Till the banks got wise and the Feds closed in
Three years of Penn State college
An Apple and some knowledge
Then you punch some keys and the money flows in
I'd stashed the cash in Zurich
Then moved it out to Kyiv
Then the island states. Man that's all it takes
I've always hated disco
But I met her out in Frisco
And I don't know why but I told her all

And from that day she's had no name
My girl with the big dark eyes
She'd followed me, all the way
And I'd never wondered why.

Two years of easy money
Until I met my honey
Then the grid shut down. And I can't get in
I decide to take my pension
Did I forget to mention
That I'm on the run from the FBI?
They caught me past the border
And just seemed to ignore her
I got thrown in jail and she walked away
Now she's smoking marijuana
In this bar in Tijuana
And it kinda sucks she's got all my bucks

And all this time she had no name
Could never figure out her game
She followed me, no shred of shame
I'd never wondered why
That dark eyed girl she had no name
Things would never be the same
I only have myself to blame
And now I realize why
