Altondesperado Reprise Lyrics

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
