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

But I know that you got your reasons

These things that are pleasin' you

Can hurt you somehow

Don't you draw the queen of diamonds

Boy

She'll beat you if she's able

You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet

And it seems to me that some fine things

Have been laid upon your table

But you only want the one that you can't get

Desperado

Oh

You ain't gettin' no younger

Your pain and your hunger

They're drivin' you home

And freedom

Oh freedom well

That's just some people talkin'

Your prison is walkin' through this world all alone

Don't your feet get cold in the winter time

The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine

It's hard to tell the night time from the day

You're losin' 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's too late
