Lyrics

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, hurt you somehow Don't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy She'll beat you if she's able Know 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 ones that you can't get Desperado, oh, you ain't getting younger Your pain and your hunger, drivin' you home And freedom, oh, freedom Well, that's just some people talkin' Well, your prison is walking through this world all alone And 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 nighttime 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 Thank you, you've been so nice Good night
