Well,
I seen the Joshua tree
Got down on my knees
Through the virgin mother of prayer
I walked old glass by foot And across the devil's backbone
I done everything,
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 listening to some black-hearted
tipsy 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-cocked,
full-tailed,
scarred hand,
stone-hilt
Don't push me, I'm a grown-ass man
I'm flashing like caution,
careful who you cross,
son
I'm reckless till 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
Say hey, what can I say?
I'm a desperate man
Oh, hey,
what can I say?
I'm a desperate man
