Now it seems to me some fine things
Desperado, oh, you ain’t gettin’ no younger
You better let somebody love you
These things that are pleasin’ you
You’re losin’ all your highs and lows
Can hurt you somehow
The sky won’t snow and the sun won’t shine
You better let somebody love you
No, the queen of hearts is always your best bet
Don’t you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
But I know that you’ve got your reasons
Don’t your feet get cold in the wintertime?
Come down from your fences and open the gate
It’s hard to tell the night time from the day
It may be rainin’ but there’s a rainbow above you
Your pain and your hunger, they’re drivin’ you home
Desperado, why don’t you come to your senses?
Freedom, ah freedom, that’s just some people talkin’
Have been laid upon your table
Oh, you’re a hard one
But you only want the ones that you can’t get
She’ll beat you if she’s able
You’re a prisoner walkin’ through this world all alone
Ain’t it funny how the feelin’ goes away
