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' fin'lly turned the tables
  Stole your dreams and paid you with regret
  Desperado
  (Is there gonna be anything left, is there gonna be anything?)
  You sealed your fate up a long time ago
  (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
  Maybe tomorrow
  Desperado
  Desperado
    Well the stage was set the sun was sinkin' low down
  As they came to town to face another showdown
  The lawmen cleared the people from the streets
  "All you blood -thirsty bystanders, will you try to
  find your seats?"
  Watch 'em duelin'
  Doolin-Dalton
  High or low ,it's all the same
  Easy money and faithless women
  You will never kill the pain
    Go down, Bill 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
