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.

You know the Queen of Hearts

Is always your best 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

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 all 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.

And 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 gates.

It may be rainin,

but there`s a rainbow above you.

You`d better let somebody love you,

Llet somebody love you.

You`d better let somebody love you,

before it`s too late.
