Boo boo

Boo boo boo boo, boo boo boo

Boo boo boo boo, boo boo boo

Boo boo boo boo boo

I've seen the Joshua Tree

Got down on my knees

Threw the Virgin Mother a prayer

I've walked glass barefooted

Strolled 'cross the devil's hot coal

I've tried everything, I swear

Oh but hey (hey), what can I say?

I'm a desperate man

I said hey (hey), what can I say?

I'm just a desperate man

Boo boo

Boo boo boo boo, boo boo boo

Boo boo boo boo, boo boo boo

Boo boo boo boo boo

Fortuneteller told me

No more last chances

You got no future at all

Oh but I ain't listenin'

To black-hearted gypsy

Then a crucifix to a bedroom wall

But hey (hey), what can I say?

I'm a desperate man

I said hey (hey), what can I say?

I'm just a desperate man

Boo boo

Boo boo boo boo, boo boo boo

Boo boo boo boo, boo boo boo

Boo boo boo boo boo

Boo boo

Boo boo boo boo, boo boo boo

Boo boo boo boo, boo boo boo

Boo boo boo boo boo

I'm a half-cock, full-tilt, scarred-hands-to-the-hilt, don't-push-me grown-ass man

Yeah flashin' light, caution, careful where ya cross son, 'til she comes back again

But now hey (hey), what can I say?

I'm a desperate man

Oh hey (hey), what can I say?

I'm just a desperate man

Oh hey (hey), I said hey (hey)

Woah what can I say, I'm a desperate man

Oh hey (hey), I said hey (hey)

I'm just a desperate man

Boo boo

Boo boo boo boo, boo boo boo

Boo boo boo boo, boo boo boo

Boo boo boo boo boo

Grown-ass man

Boo boo

Boo boo boo boo, boo boo boo

Boo boo boo boo, boo boo boo

Boo boo boo boo boo

Boo boo

Boo boo boo boo, boo boo boo

Boo boo boo boo, boo boo boo

Boo boo boo boo boo
