Desesperado
Why don't you come to your senses
You've been out ridin' fences
So long now
You're a hard one
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
It seems to me some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones you can't get
Desperado
Oh you ain't getting no younger
Your pain and your hunger
They're drivin' 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's hard to tell the nighttime from the day
You're losing all your highs and lows
It's funny how the feeling goes away
Desperado
Why don't you come to your senses
Come on down from your fences
And open the gates
It may be rainin'
But there's a rainbow above you
You'd better let somebody love you
Let somebody love you
Before it's too late
