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 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 losin' 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, open the gate
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you
(let sombody love you)
You better let somebody love you
before it's too late

8. It's not me.
I was an ugly, ugly child. Some might say "repellent," but you can't *always* take your mom's assesment of your looks as objective.

17. Last time someone put this in the board
I mentioned that I used this song as a gateway to sex when I was in college.....

I played guitar and sang fairly well, which, when bongs and beer were added, really enhanced my chances with the ladies....

But, even those fond missing memories, beer and bongs tend to make memory chips inside the old cranium, crash, to use the common venacualr....

So this song, although I am almost partially quasi certain helped me get laid after I had warbled it to a coed escaping from a suburban hell, is still a piece of dribble....

Nope, no nostalgia here....

I cold die a happy man if I never heard this crap ever again...
