Desperado/lyrics

Desperado Why don't you come to your senses? You've been out riding fences For so long now

Ah, you're a hard one But I know that you've got your reasons These things that are pleasing 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 Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your table But you only want the one that you can't get

Desperado Ah, you ain't getting no younger Your pain and your hunger They're driving you home

Freedom, ah, freedom That's just some people talking You're a prisoner 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 night time from the day You're losing 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 And open the gate

It may be raining But there's a rainbow above you You better let somebody love you You better let somebody love you Before it's too late
