Desperado Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Desperado
Sittin' in an old Monte Carlo
A man whose heart is hollow
Ah-ah, take it easy
I'm not tryna go against you
Actually, I'm goin' with ya

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

[Chorus]
If you want, we can be runaways
Runnin' 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
Sittin' in a ol' Monte Carlo
We've both had our hearts broke
Ah-ah, take it easy
I'm not tryna go against you
I can be a lone wolf with you
[Pre-Chorus]
Gotta get up out of here
And you ain't leavin' me behind
I know you won't 'cause we share common interests
You need me, there ain't no leavin' me behind
Never, no, no, just want outta here, yeah
Once I'm gone, ain't no goin' back

[Chorus]
If you want, we can be runaways
Runnin' 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

[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
Runnin' 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
If you want, we can be runaways
Runnin' 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, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah
Yeah, yeah

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
