Bryan Adams Lyrics for Song: Rebel
 Lyrics for Album: Hits On Fire [1988]
 
 
 
 5949>Rebel
 
 
 
 He made his way back to the old town
 
 And everything looked just the same
 
 The shops and the schools and the factories were there
 
 But somehow the faces had changed
 
 
 
 So he went for a walk in the high street
 
 Took his coat off and rolled up his sleeves
 
 He thought of his father and his father before him
 
 And how he was the first one to leave
 
 
 
 Well he didn't come here for forgiveness
 
 There isn't a lot they can say
 
 'Cause I remember the reasons he first ran away
 
 
 
 Chorus
 
 
 
 He's a rebel
 
 Just a rebel
 
 Got his back to the wall
 
 Gonna fight 'til he falls
 
 He's a rebel
 
 
 
 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 he's too young to remember
 
 Don't tell him what's wrong or what's right
 
 Just give him a chance to go out there and fight
 
 
 
 Chorus
 
 
 
 He's a rebel
 
 Just a rebel
 
 All the battles are won
 
 But he's still on the run
 
 He's a rebel
 
 
 
 When it comes time for leavin'
 
 Don't stand in my way
 
 There's nothin' left for me here
 
 Gonna run, run away
 
 
 
 In the morning he walks past the old house
 
 In the rain under grey northern skies
 
 There's a new coat of paint on the front garden gate
 
 But there's more there than first meets the eye
 
 
 
 For a moment he stands undecided
 
 Looking back on the days of his youth
 
 As two worlds collide in a moment of truth
 
 He's a rebel
 
 5949>
