Dare Danny Rose stole an automobile
That Danny Rose know'd he oughtn't to steal
Fighting and stealing, that's how Danny rose
Shouting his name, so that everybody know'd
He was a dare Danny Rose

Dare Danny blowed, he thought he'd go it alone
There Danny goes with his gun and his comb
Shooting and stealing, that's how growed
Shouting his fame so that everybody know'd
He was a rare Danny Rose

Dare Danny Rose, why they say that they'll get you
Hang up your clothes and people pay to inspect you
Saying "Here is the bloodstained jacket he wore"
This is his original gun, never been shown to the public before

Danny Rose stole an automobile
That Danny Rose really oughtn't to steal
He hit the road block, they saw him explode
No one could save him, how my Danny glowed
'Til early morning

Rare Danny, Rare Danny
Rare Danny, Rare Danny, Rare Danny, Dare Danny
Please say a prayer for Danny Rose
