Desperado

                                  
Desperado….

Why don’t you come to your senses?

You’ve been out ridin’ fences

For so long now



Oh, you’re a hard one

I know that you got your reasons

These things that are pleasing you 

Can hurt you somehow



Don’t you draw the queen of diamonds, boy

She’ll beat you if she is able

The queen of hearts 

Is always your best bet



Now It seems to me, some bad things

Have been laid upon your table

But you only walk away

That you cant get



Desperado… oh, you ain’t getting’ no younger

Your pain and your hunger

They’re driving you home

And freedom, oh freedom

Well that’s just some people talking

Your prison is walking through 

this world all alone



Don’t your feet get cold

In the wintertime?

The sky won’t snow 

And the sun won’t shine

It is hard to tell the nighttime from the day



You’re losing all your highs and lows

Ain’t it funny how the feeling goes

Away?



Desperado….why don’t you come to your senses?

Come down from your fences

Open the gate

It may be rainin’

But there’s a rainbow above you

You better let somebody love you, let somebody love you

You better let somebody love you

Before it is too late.
