Eric Church - Desperate Man

(Boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo)
(Boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo)
(Boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo)

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

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

(Boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo)
(Boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo)
(Boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo)

Fortuneteller told me
"No more last chances
You got no future at all"
Oh, but I ain't listenin'
To black-hearted gypsy
Nailed a crucifix to a different wall

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

(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)

Yeah, 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

Yeah, hey (hey), what can I say?
I'm a desperate man
Oh, hey (hey), what can I say?
I'm just a desperate man

Oh, hey (hey), I said hey (hey)
Whoa, what can I say? I'm a desperate man
Oh, hey (hey), I said hey (hey)
I'm just a desperate man, oh, yeah

(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)
