Rebel to Rebel

When the night winds down and my thoughts run deep

And the Lord hangs a black cat moon

As I lie awake I swear I heard a song in the wind

In the southern breeze I can hear the strummin'

of a six string just outta tune

And a whisky soaked voice

Singing 'bout places he's been

Cuttin' through the night

Like a siren's song

He's tellin' me tonight

Gotta spread the news along

Rebel to rebel

To anyone who's ever tried

Rebel to rebel

To take on the other side

Callin' out his name as night is falling

A brother's voice is calling

Sending messages through the past

To rebels like me and you

I can see his face as I watch the stars

From a tour bus heading from town

With a wink and a smile

He'd tell me things words couldn't say

To be a street survivor

Boy you gotta stand tall

Keep that dream in your heart

I'll be there in the fight

Nothing gonna stand in our way

Well I'm taking his advice

As I sing this song

Let fortune roll the dice

And don't you ever forget where you 're from

Rebel to rebel

Now I see him walk away

Rebel to rebel

Here it come

Now I hear his voice again

Rebel to rebel

To anyone who's ever tried

Rebel to rebel

To take on the other side

Callin' out his name as night is falling

A brothers voice is calling

Rebel to rebel oooh rebels like me

Rebel to rebel, rebel to rebel, rebel to rebel
