Lyrics:

Desperado, why don´t you come to your senses?
You 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 quenn 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, ah, you ain´t getting no younger.
Your pain and your hunger, they´re driving you home.
Freedom, oh, fredoom,. That´s just some people talking
You´re a prisioner 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 right-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, but therés a rainbow above you.
You better let somebody love you
You better let somebody love you
Before it´s too late.
