Desperado,  why don't  you come to your  senses ?
 You been out  ridin' fences  for so  long now
 Oh, you're a hard  one, I know that you  got your reasons,
 These things  that are pleasin'  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,  oh you ain't gettin'  no younger,
 Your pain  and your hunger,  they're drivin'  you home
 And freedom,  oh freedom well, that's  just some  people talkin'
 Your prison  is walkin'  through 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 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',  oh but there's a rainbow  above  you
 You better let  somebody  love  you,
 You better let  somebody  love  you before  it's too  late
