About

One of Rihanna’s darker songs on her album Rated R, which features Guns N Roses guitarist Slash on Guitar. From frisk searching to six inch heels, Rihanna leaves out nothing in this song. She uses her lower register and “heavy” modulation to perform the most of the song.

ROCKSTAR 101 Lyrics

[Intro]
I told ya, I told ya
I told ya baby, baby
Uh, uh, I told ya, baby
Uh oh
Uh, uh, I told ya, baby
Uh, uh, I told ya, baby

[Verse 1]
Got up in the club, posted in the back
Feeling so good, looking so bad
Rocking this skirt, rocking this club
Got my middle finger up, I don't really give a fuck
Rocking these diamonds, I'm rocking this chain
Make sure you get a picture, I'm rocking my fame

[Pre-Chorus]
To be what you is you gotta be what you are
The only thing I'm missing is a black guitar

[Chorus]
I'm a rockstar (Rockstar)
Hey baby, I'm a rockstar (Rockstar)
Hey baby
Big cities (Big cities)
Bright lights (Bright lights)
Sleep all day (All day)
Long nights
Baby, I'm a rockstar (Rockstar)
Hey baby, I'm a rockstar (Rockstar)
Hey baby, it's big cities (Big cities)
Bright lights (Bright lights)
Sleep all day (All day)
Long nights (Long nights)
Baby, I'm a

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, baby, I'm a
Oh, baby, I'm a
Oh, baby, I'm a
Oh, baby, I'm a
Oh, baby, I'm a
Oh, baby, I'm a
Oh, baby, I'm a
Oh, baby, I'm a
Hey, hey, hey

[Verse 2]
Six-inch walker, big shit talker
I never play the victim, I'd rather be a stalker
So baby take me in, I'll disobey the law
Make sure you frisk me good
Check my panties and my bra
Wild'n out, a crazy house
With my white jacket on
Won't you come and sign me out?

[Pre-Chorus]
To be what you is you gotta be what you are
The only thing I'm missing is a black guitar

[Chorus]
I'm a rockstar (Rockstar)
Hey baby, I'm a rockstar (Rockstar)
Hey baby
Big cities (Big cities)
Bright lights (Bright lights)
Sleep all day (All day)
Long nights
Baby, I'm a rockstar (Rockstar)
Hey baby, I'm a rockstar (Rockstar)
Hey baby, it's big cities (Big cities)
Bright lights (Bright lights)
Sleep all day (All day)
Long nights (Long nights)
Baby, I'm a

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, baby, I'm a
Oh, baby, I'm a
Oh, baby, I'm a
Oh, baby, I'm a
Oh, baby, I'm a
Oh, baby, I'm a
Oh, baby, I'm a
Oh, baby, I'm a
Hey, hey, hey

[Bridge]
Hey
I'm rocking out tonight
'Cause I can't wait 'til tomorrow
I'ma live my whole life in the night
'Cause I ain't got time to borrow
I'm rocking out tonight
Why wait 'til tomorrow
I'ma live my whole life in the night

[Chorus]
I'm a rockstar (Rockstar)
Hey baby, I'm a rockstar (Rockstar)
Hey baby
Big cities (Big cities)
Bright lights (Bright lights)
