Desperate Man

(Boo boo boo-boo-boo-boo-boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo-boo-boo-boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo boo boo boo)[Verse 1]

I've seen the Joshua Tree

Got down on my knees

Threw the Virgin Mother a prayer

I've walked glass barefooted

Strolled 'cross the devil's hot coal

I've tried everything, I swear[Chorus]

Oh but hey, what can I say?

I'm a desperate man

I said hey, what can I say?

I'm just a desperate man

(Boo boo boo-boo-boo-boo-boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo-boo-boo-boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo boo boo boo)[Verse 2]

Fortuneteller told me

"No more last chances

"You got no future at all"

Oh but I ain't listenin'

To black-hearted gypsy

And a crucifix through a bedroom wall[Chorus]

Hey, what can I say?

I'm a desperate man

I said hey, what can I say?

I'm just a desperate man

(Boo boo boo-boo-boo-boo-boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo-boo-boo-boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo boo boo boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo-boo-boo-boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo-boo-boo-boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo boo boo boo)[Bridge]

I'm a half-cock, full-tilt, scarred-hands-to-the-hilt

Don't-push-me grown-ass man

Yeah flashin' light caution, careful where ya cross son

'Til she comes back again[Chorus]

Yeah hey, what can I say?

I'm a desperate man

Oh hey, what can I say?

I'm just a desperate man[Outro]

Oh hey, I said hey

Woah, what can I say? I'm a desperate man

Oh hey, I said hey

I'm just a desperate man

(Boo boo boo-boo-boo-boo-boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo-boo-boo-boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo boo boo boo)

Grown-ass man

(Boo boo boo-boo-boo-boo-boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo-boo-boo-boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo boo boo boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo-boo-boo-boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo-boo-boo-boo)

(Boo boo boo-boo boo boo boo)
