Did the Eagles really write Desperado for Robert Vegas Bob Swetz?

By
Industry Observer

 

The song Desperado was written by Glenn Frey & Don Henley of the music group The Eagles.

 

When the song Desperado first came out in 1973 I thought is was slow and didn't relate much to it.

 

It wasn't until the 1980's that the song started to make more sense to Vegas Bob.

Then the 90's the song Desperado starting falling into place in my life.

 

And now ... I am quite sure that when Glen & Don started writing the song Desperado, they were writing about Vegas Bob's life.

 

And if you want to learn more about VB and or have never heard the classic song Desperado, take a few moments and listen ...

Hello Bob ... thanks for the stop my friend, and it's funny you should ask!

Even within my marriages, VB has always been a Desperado ;o/ and with all my traveling it's very hard to ground me!

So are you longing for something or rejecting it?  I've heard there are several meanings to this song...
