Roger Daltrey - Rebel lyrics
[Roger Daltrey - Rebel lyrics]
And everything looked the same
The shops and the schools and
The factories were there
But somehow the faces had changed
So I went for a walk in the high streets
Took my coat off and rolled up my sleeves
I thought of my father and
His father before him
And how I was the first one to leave
Well I didn't come here for forgiveness
There isn't a lot I can say
'Cause I remember the reasons
I first ran away
I'm a rebel just a rebel
Got my back to the wall
Gonna fight 'til I fall i'm a rebel
When it comes time for leavin'
Don't stand in my way
Don't ever look back - don't surrender
The old men say they've seen it before
Oh they drink their beer and
They talk about friends
Who didn't come back from the war
Don't say I'm too young to remember
Don't tell me what's wrong or what's right
Just give me a chance to
Go out there and fight
I'm a rebel just a rebel
Got my back to the wall
Gonna fight 'til I fall i'm a rebel
When it comes time for leavin'
Don't stand in my way
There's nothing left for me here
Gonna run, run away
I'm a rebel just a rebel
Got my back to the wall
Gonna fight 'til I fall i'm a rebel
Just a rebel just a rebel
I'm a rebel
