Rebel — текст песни (Bryan Adams)

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 didnt come here for forgiveness

There isnt a lot they can say

Cause I remember the reasons he first ran away



Hes a rebel

Just a rebel

Got his back to the wall

Gonna fight til he falls

Hes a rebel



Dont ever look back - dont surrender

The old men say theyve seen it before

Oh they drink their beer and they talk about friends

Who didnt come back from the war



Dont say hes too young to remember

Dont tell him whats wrong or whats right

Just give him a chance to get out there and fight



Hes a rebel

Just a rebel

All the battles are won

But hes still on the run

Hes a rebel



When it comes time for leavin

Dont stand in my way

Theres nothin left for me here

Gonna run, run away



In the morning he walks past the old house

In the rain under grey northern sky

Theres a new coat of paint on the front garden gate

But theres 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



Hes a rebel
