Rebel Say A Prayer

In the midnight rain Johnny throws a stance

Says, "Love me tender, love me true"

And in the doorway there, she looks up at him

And she says, "You know I do"

But Johnny?s on the run, 'cause he stole a gun

He needs to disappear

Johnny shot a man and now he?s scared

She whispers in his ear

Rebel say a prayer

That there?s a place somewhere

Where rock and roll goes on

And we?ll be free

There?s glory waiting there

Can feel it in the air

Rebel say a prayer

I?ll meet you there

Johnny pulls her close, says, "I?ve got to go

'Cause they?ll come for me tonight"

And he turns to leave but she won?t let go

And they stand there in the light

Baby where you go, that?s where I will go

Love never seemed so clear

If it?s the last thing in the world we do

We?ve gotta get out of here

Rebel say a prayer

That there?s a place somewhere

Where rock and roll goes on

And we?ll be free

Where Cadillacs have wings

A place where Elvis sings

For you and me

So baby take my hand

We?ll find the promised land

Above the stars tonight

There?s Graceland waitin? there

Believe it if you dare

And rebel say a prayer

And the cops are waiting down the street

They both know that there?s no way out

Johnny pulls his gun

And all hell breaks loose

She cries, "I'll remember this"

As they're cut down in the final kiss

Rebel say a prayer

That there?s a place somewhere

Where rock and roll goes on

And we?ll be free

Where Cadillacs have wings

A place where Elvis sings

For you and me

So baby take my hand

We?ll find the promised land

Above the stars tonight

There?s Graceland waitin? there

Believe it if you dare

And rebel say a prayer

Rebel say a prayer

Above the stars tonight

If you dare

Rebel say a prayer

And I?ll meet you there

Rebel say a prayer

I?ll meet you there, yeah
