Desperate Men Do Desperate Things - Jimmy LaFave

You can while away our hours, you can talk in tongues

Throw you promises, baby, until kingdom come

Cast your bread upon the waters see what it may bring

Desperate men do desperate things

Come on talk to me, baby, talk big and be brave

It’s not your only reputation that you’re trying to save

I’ve had you under observation you’re into various pain

And desperate men do desperate things

Come on out of your daydream go some other place

Wipe the tear from your eyes wipe the smile from your face

Before you lose another love to the night and to the rain

'Cause desperate men do desperate things

Let it out, baby, stir it up and mix it in

Two parts religion three parts sin

It’s the truth or consequences because the new king reigns

And desperate men do desperate things

You can while away your hours you can talk in tongues

Throw your promises, baby, into kingdom come

Cast your bread upon the waters see what it may bring

Still desperate men do desperate things
