Why don't you come to your senses?
You been out riding fences
For so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
I know that you 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 bet
Now 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
And freedom, oh freedom
Well, that's just some people talking
Your prison is walking
Through this world alone
Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the nighttime 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 fom 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
