Karaoké Desperate Man Nathan Lee Jackson

He was a poor young man with a gun in his hand pointed straight at me

I looked him in the eye and saw the rest of his life

In prison or dyin' on the streets

I saw him bein' born to a mama hooked on drugs

Foster homes and dead end roads

I saw everything but love

I gave him all I had but before he turned and ran I said

God loves a desperate man someone whose dyin' for a hand

A broken heart a tremblin' soul

Someone who has nowhere else to go but Him

God loves a desperate man

It stopped him in his tracks and he began to laugh he said man you're such a fool

I could shoot you down right here right now that's what I'm gonna do

He raised that big black gun and waved it in my face

He couldn't miss but somehow he did

As I stood there and prayed, yeah

God loves a desperate man someone whose dyin' for a hand

A broken heart a tremblin' soul

Someone who has nowhere else to go but Him

God loves a desperate man

I guess that I should hate a thief

Who tried to take my life that day

But he was just a lost soul and aren't we all in our own way

God loves a desperate man someone whose dyin' for a hand

A broken heart a tremblin' soul

Someone who has nowhere else to go but Him

God loves a desperate man

God loves a desperate man
