Rihanna Desperado Lyrics

Rihanna sings about someone who is always "on the run". She tries really hard in their relationship and she is worried about whether she can run away with him or if she will be abandoned.

The song's producer, Mike Schultz, stated that he wanted the track to sound "edgy".

"I like to do different things and try to push the envelope on sound. If you listen to the record, it's got an alternative vibe but still has urban undertones but it's guitar and dirty live bass. I was just trying to do something edgy. I'm into doing dark, edgy stuff that moves you, puts you in a mood,"Schultz said.

(Verse 1)
Desperado
Sittin' man old Monte Carlo
A man whose heart is hollow
Mhm, take it easy
I'm not tryna go against yuh
Actually, I'm going witcha

(Pre-Chorus)
Gotta get up out of here
And yuh ain't leavin' me behind
I know you won't cause we share common
interests
You need me, there ain't no leaving me behind
Never, no, no, I just want outta here, yeah
Once I'm gone, ain't no going back

(Chorus)
If you want, we can be runaways
Running from any sight of love
Yeah, yeah, there ain't nothin'
There ain't nothin' here for me
There ain't nothin' here for me anymore
But I don't wanna be alone

(Verse 2)
Desperado
Sitting on your ole' Monte Carlo
We've both had our hearts broke
Unh, hunh, take it easy
I'm not tryna go against yuh
I can be a lone wolf witcha

(Pre-Chorus)
Gotta get up out of here
And you ain't leaving me behind
I know you won't cause we share common
interests
You need me, there ain't no leaving me
behind
Never, no, no, both want outta here, yeah
Once we're gone, ain't no going back

(Chorus)
If you want, we can be runaways
Running from any sight of love
Yeah, yeah, there ain't nothin'
There ain't nothin' here for me anymore
But I don't wanna be alone

(Bridge)
Dear desperado
Yeah, I don't wanna be alone
Dear desperado
Yeah, I don't wanna be alone

(Chorus)
If you want, we can be runaways
Running from any sight of love
Yeah,yeah, there ain't nothin'
There ain't nothin' here for me
There ain't nothin' here for me anymore
But I don't wanna be alone

(Outro)
Yeah-yeah-ah
