Desperate Men Do Desperate Things by Jimmy LaFave Lyrics

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
