Find myself lookin' down on a canyon But the next one's the same as before The trail's so damn rocky and the Sun's so damn hot I don't know where I'm headed anymore it's hard to remember the first time I drew my gun The faces return in the night The past is all echoes and shadows anymore I think I lost my taste for the fight That is the fate of the old desperado Better the angels to claim you than a long ride alone Someone would have long ago found El Dorado So luck to you, cowboy, I'm movin' on Play your cards as they lay on the table Should've ended a long time ago The only place that ever really mattered to me Was the one place I just couldn't go And the stars, when they shine, how they light up the night Smell the rain comin' in on the wind Though my eyes are so heavy, I remember tonight When the world was just waitin' to begin That is the fate of the old desperado Better the angels to claim you than a long ride alone Someone would have long ago found El Dorado So luck to you, cowboy, I'm movin' on But the easy will blind you, the road will unwind you Remind you of how far you've gone He closed his eyes from the heavens His breathing slowed down to a crawl The clouds opened up like a dam broken down And I just sat there and let the rain fall That is the fate of the old desperado Better the angels to claim you than a long ride alone Someone would have long ago found El Dorado So luck to you, cowboy, I'm movin' on Luck to you, cowboy, I'm movin' on
