Desperate Man Songtext
von Ray Wylie Hubbard feat. The Band of Heathens

Well, I′ve seen the Joshua Tree
Got down on my knees
Threw the Virgin Mother a prayer
I walked on glass barefooted
And I cross the devil's barebone
I′ve done everythin', I swear

But hey, what can I say
I'm a desperate man
Hey, what can I say
I′m a desperate man

Fortune teller told me, "No more last chances
You got no future at all"
But I ain′t listenin' to some black-hearted gypsy
Who ain′t got a crucifix on her wall


Hey, what can I say
I'm a desperate man
Hey, what can I say
I′m a desperate man

I'm a half-cock, full-tilt, scarred hand, stone heeled
Don′t push me, I'm a grown-ass man
I'm flashin′ light caution, careful who you cross, son
I′m reckless, did you come back again?

Hey, what can I say
Oh, I'm a desperate man
Hey, what can I say
Oh, I′m a desperate man

I said hey, what can I say
I'm a desperate man
Oh, hey, what can I say
I′m a desperate man
Oh
