Jack Bruce - No Surrender lyrics

No Surrender! You've got to stand alone
Until temptation has gone
Everybody's talkin' 'bout walkin' tall
But from this moment on
You've got to answer the call no Surrender!

Steal all my bread til my pocket's dead
I don't hear a word you say suck on my soul
Til you've reached your goal
I'll never give myself away
No – I'll never give myself away
Demolish my house i'll scream and shout
But, I won't do a thing you ask
Kick down my door or start a war
I'm never gonna let you pass
No – I'm never gonna let you pass

No Surrender! You've got to be a man
You have to make your last stand
Everybody's crying and trying to run
Hold fast and let them pass
The battle's hardly begun no Surrender!

Shoot down my kite take king-sized bites
Of the apples I know and love
Groove on my lot rip up my roots
I'll never let you get above
No – I'll never let you get above

Dump on my lawn and poison my corn
Drag my name all over town call up your guns
Everybody run i'm still gonna cut you down
Yes – I'm still gonna cut you down
Chorus I I I: No Surrender!
You cannot be afraid
Of mistakes that you made
Everybody's running for shelter
You know your destiny
You have to make the parade no Surrender!

Steal all my bread til my pocket's dead
I don't hear a word you say suck on my soul
I've reached my goal
I'll never give myself away
No – I'll never give myself away
