Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Desperado

Sitting in a old Monte Carlo

A man whose heart is hollow

Take it easy

I'm not tryna go against you

Actually, I'm going with you

Gotta get up outta here

[Verse 2]

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, just want outta here, yeah

Once I'm gone, ain't no going back

[Verse 3]

If you want, we could be runaways

Running from any sight of love

Yeah, yeah, there ain't nothing

There ain't nothing here for me

There ain't nothing here for me anymore

But I don't wanna be alone

[Verse 4]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Leaving me behind, never, no no

Leaving me behind, never, no no

[Verse 5]

Desperado

Sitting in a old Monte Carlo

We both have had our heart's broken

Take it easy

I'm not tryna go against you

I can be a lone wolf with ya

Gotta get up outta here

[Verse 6]

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

[Verse 7]

If you want, we could be runaways

Running from any sight of love

Yeah, yeah, there ain't nothing

There ain't nothing here for me

There ain't nothing here for me anymore

I don't wanna be alone

[Verse 8]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Desperado

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Desperado

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 9]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
