Lyrics of Desperate Man by Eric Church
intro
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
verse
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, (hey) what can I say?
I'm a desperate man
I said hey, (hey) what can I say?
I'm just a desperate man
hook
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
chorus
Fortune teller told me
"No more last chances
You got no future at all"
Oh, but I ain't listenin'
You black-hearted gypsy
With a crucifix through her bedroom wall
chorus
And hey, (hey) what can I say?
I'm a desperate man
I said hey, (hey) what can I say?
I'm just a desperate man
hook
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
verse
Yeah I'm a half-cocked
Full-tilt
Scarred-hands-to-the-hilt
Don't-push-me grown-ass man
Yeah, flashin' light
Caution
Careful where ya cross her
'Til she comes back again
chorus
Yeah hey, (hey)what can I say?
I'm a desperate man
Oh hey, what can I say?
I'm just a desperate man
chorus
Oh hey, (hey) I said hey
Woah, what can I say? I'm a desperate man
Oh hey, (hey) I said hey
I'm just a desperate man
hook
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Grown-ass man
hook
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
outro
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop
