Doolin-Dalton Desperado Reprise Lyrics

(G. Frey, J. Browne, D. Henley, J.D. Souther)

Well the stage was set, the sun was sinkin lowdown.
As they came to town to face another showdown.
The lawmen cleared the people from the street.
All you bloodthirsty bystanders, will you try to find a seat?

Watchin doolin, doolin-dalton.
High or low, it's all the same.
Easy money, faithless women.
You will never kill the pain.

Go down little doolin, don't you wonder why.
Sooner or later we all have to die.
Sooner or later, that's a stone cold fact.
Four men ride out and only three ride back.

The queen of diamonds let you down, she was just an empty fable.
The queen of hearts you say you never met.
Your twisted fate has found you out, and it's finally turned the table.
Stole your dreams and paid you with regret.

Desperado, IS THERE GONNA BE ANYTHING LEFT, IS THERE GONNA BE?
You've sealed your fate in a long time, ANYTHING?
AIN"T IT HARD WHEN YOU'RE ALL ALONE IN THE CENTER RING?
Now there's no time left to borrow, IS THERE GONNA BE ANYTHING LEFT?
Only stardust, MAYBE TOMORROW?
Maybe tomorrow.
DESPERADO, DESPERADO, DESPERADO, ...
