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
     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
     How it seems to me some fine things

     have been laid upon your table
     But you only want the ones you can't get

     Desperado
     Oh, 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
     Your prison is walking thru 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
