The Eagles - Desperado

The Eagles - Desperado

Lyrics:
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You been out ridin' fences for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
I know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you
Can hurt you somehow

Don' you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
She'll beat you if she's able
You know the queen of heats 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 youger
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 loosin' 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, before it's too late

Many years ago The Good Lord used this song to let me know that I was going down the wrong road (in life) and that time was running out.

my pappy was buried to this song in 1989. I was six years old. Love you dad.

@edwardjames50 I reckon it's about a bunch of us.

your prison is walking through this world all alone..they don't write lyrics like this anymore. thank goodness for youtube - preserving the music of my youth - i feel lucky that i was young when these guys were, but i am touched that so many kids today get it - that this music is truly timeless.

@sclements75 As everyone should. I'm not backing the record labels or corporate bullshit. But the artists deserve their due. Trent Rez put his shit out there for FREE w/option to "donate". That CD made MILLIONS. No shit.

@sclements75 the eagles are in charge of that stuff the manager is

[edwardjames50]

This song was written for and about me.
