Desperado

"Why don't you ____________(base verb)" is a nice way to tell someone to do something or an expression to give advice, similar to "You should ____(base verb)

"Come to your senses" -- look around and notice reality 

"Ain't" is a common word in the USA.  It can mean aren't or isn't and it signals that the person who uses it is poor, honest, and from a rural (farm or small town) area.  Don't use it in a job interview.


This song uses imagery from "Westerns," old
movies set in a fictional 19th century western USA.

Do you like movies? What kind of movies do you like?  What's your favorite movie?
Can you write about a movie that you recently saw?
