Desperado - Live Version

Desperado, 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 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 best bet

Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your table

But you only want the ones that 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 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 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 and open the gate?

It may be raining, oh raining but there's a rainbow above you

You better let somebody love you, let somebody love you

You better let somebody love you before it's too late
