Sitting right there in your room alone
Listening to them old sad songs
Got nowhere to be but home
So where you going now
Say you're going where no one goes
You left the house wearing ugly clothes
You ain't got no money to blow
It's a sad place to go
Desperado, desperado
Sings that old radio
Cry while you're driving all alone
Cause you've gone searching for greener fields
Only to find graveyard hills
But this is where all black sheep must roam
Too far to quit, too lost to get back home
Say you wrote a song for another girl
Tried to give her your whole world
Didn't work but you gave it a whirl
As lovers often do
Now you're leaving town and you're outta here
Off to the land of music and beer
You're gonna get lost up there
Just a face in their crowd
Desperado, Desperado
Sings that old radio
Cry while you're driving all alone
Cause you've gone searching for greener fields
Only to find graveyard hills
But this is where all black sheep must roam
Too far to quit, too lost to get back home
Too far to quit, too lost to get back home
