Desperado
Sops: Let somebody love you x 3
Altos + Tenors: ooh
All: oooh
All: Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You've 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't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
She'll beat you if she's able
Sops: You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet
Altos + tenors: ooh
All: Now it seems to me, some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
Sops: But you only want the ones
Altos + tenors: oooh that you can't get
All: that you can't get
Desperado, sops: oh, you ain't gettin' no younger
Altos + tenors: ooh
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
All: And freedom, oh freedom altos: well, that’s just some people talkin'
Tenors: Your prison is walking through this world all alone
Altos and soprano: ooh
Sops and altos: Don’t your feet get cold in the winter time?
tenors: ooh
All: The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
All: It's hard to tell the night time from the day
Sops and altos: You're losin' all your highs and lows
Tenors: ooh
All: Ain’t it funny how the feeling goes away?
Desperado, sops: why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open the gate
Altos and tenors: oooh
Tenor: It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
Altos and sop: raining there’s a rainbow
All: You better let somebody love you
Let somebody love you
Let somebody love you
before it's too late
You better let somebody love you
Let somebody love you
Let somebody love you
before
altos: and tenors: it’s too late
Sops: too late
All: Oooh
