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   But I know that you've got your reasons   These things that are pleasing you will 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   Well, it seems to me some fine things   Have been laid upon your table   But you only want the things that you can't get      Desperado   You know you ain't getting younger   Your pain and your hunger are 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 wintertime   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, let somebody love you   Let somebody love you before it's too late
