歌词与中文翻译
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
亡命之徒，为什么还不醒悟？
You been out ridin' fences for so long now
逃离现世，如此之久
Oh, you're a hard one
你呀，真是个固执的家伙
I know that you got your reasons
我知道你也有难言之隐
These things that are pleasin' you
现在使你高兴的那些事
Can hurt you somehow
日后可能狠狠伤你
Don't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
你难道还在渴求那高不可攀的女王吗
She'll beat you if she's able
可你知，她免不了伤害你
You know the queen of heats is always your best bet
你知道，善良贤淑的女孩才是你的命中注定
Now it seems to me, some fine things
在我看来，不错的选择
Have been laid upon your table
已摆在你面前
But you only want the ones that you can't get
但是你永不满足
Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no younger
亡命之徒，你可知韶华不再
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
现实的打击和苦痛会让你回头
And freedom, oh freedom well, that's just some people talkin'
自由，无拘无束，那只是人们的遥远理想
Your prison is walking through this world all alone
孑孓独行是你的褒奖也是困境（人人生而孤独）
Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
脚踏冬日大地，你感觉到冷了吗？
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
当冬雪不再夏阳黯淡四季混乱
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
当白天和黑夜无法分辨
You're loosin' all your highs and lows
不悲不喜你心如死灰
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?
再谈失去，难道不可笑吗？
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
亡命之徒，为什么还不醒悟？
Come down from your fences, open the gate
卸掉盔甲，打开心门
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
追逐你的爱人去吧
You better let somebody love you, before it's too late
追逐你的爱人去吧，为时还未算晚.....
