Desperate Ways
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Your desperate ways are gonna hurt you
Your desperate ways will make you cry
You'll make your man pack up and leave you
Well I'm that man that's saying goodbye
All over town girl you've been running all over town you're livin' high
You forgot your home and the one who loves you
Well I'm that one that you left here to cry
Well your desperate ways are callin' you
Every single night and you never can say no
Some day when you're older and on your own
Your desperate ways will leave you all alone
[ guitar ]
Your desperate ways are gonna hurt you...
Well your desperate ways are callin' you...
Your desperate ways will leave you all alone
[ drums ]
Some day when you're older and on your own
Your desperate ways will leave you all alone
Yes your desperate ways will leave you all alone
Yes your desperate ways will leave you all alone
