Desperado why don't you come to
your senses
You've been out riding fences
for so long now
Oh you're a hard one
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 ones that
you can't get
Desperado oh you ain't getting
no younger
Your pain and your hunger
they're driving 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
winter time
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 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
