Desperado



Why don't you come to your senses



You been out ridin' fences



For so long now



Oh, you're a hard one



But I know that you've 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



The queen of hearts



Is always your best bet







Now it seems to me some fine things



Have been laid upon your table



But you only want the ones



That you can't get







Desperado



Oh you ain't gettin' no younger



Your pain and your hunger



They're drivin' you home







Freedom, Ah freedom



That's just some people talkin'



You're prisoners walkin'



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 night time



From the day







You're losin' all your highs and lows



Ain't it funny how the feelin' 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



You better let somebody love you



Before it's too late
