Desperado

Desperado - Lynn Anderson

Desperado why don't you come to your senses

You been out ridin' fences for so long now

Oh you're a hard one

But 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 that 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

Goes away

Desperado why don't you come to your senses

Come down from your fences open the gate

It may be rainin' but there's a rainbow above you

You better let somebody love you

You better let somebody love you

Before it's too late

Too late
