Desperado
Why don't you come to your senses?
You've been out riding fences for so long now
You're a hard one
And I know you've got your reasons
But these things that are pleasing you
Will hurt you somehow
Don't draw the queen of diamonds, boy
Don't draw the queen of diamonds, boy
Don't draw the queen of diamonds, boy
She'll beat you if she's able
The queen of hearts is always your best bet
And it seems to me some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones you can't give
Desperado
Boy, you ain't getting any younger
Your pain and your hunger
Is driving you home
And freedom, freedom
Is just some people talking
And your prison is walking
Through this world all alone
And then your feet get cold in the wintertime
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
You can't tell the night time from the day
Losing all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?
It just goes away
Desperado
Why don't you come to your senses?
Get down from those fences
Open the gate
It may be raining
But there's a room
With a rainbow above you
When you let somebody love you
Let somebody love you
Let somebody love you
Before it's too late

Amen.
