Hard Luck Hero

Teenage rebel, nothing to lose

Back against the wall, mad and confused

Every conversation seems to end in a fight

Older generations say

They should know what's wrong from right

But all he ever wanted was freedom to say

Leave me alone, let me live my way

Hard luck hero, can't you see

Gotta run, run, run if you wanna be free

Hard luck hero, you and me

Gotta run, run, run, like a river runs free

For you and me

Cool sunglasses and a fast machine

Black leather jacket, old blue jeans

Never liked to fight, but he knew he could

Going through life, hustled and missunderstood

But all he ever wanted was someone to show

A little bit of love, but he never know

Hard luck hero, can't you see

Well we got no cause, but you wanna be free

Hard luck hero, you and me

Gotta run, run, run, like a river runs free

For you and me

For you and me

Driving through the hills, running fast and free

Racing to the edge high above the sea

Couldn't slow down, had to pay the price

Never being bound to living someone else's live

No matter what happened, no matter what they say

He was a rebel 'til his dying day

Hard luck hero, can't you see

Well we got no cause, but you wanna be free

Hard luck hero, you and me

Gotta run, run, run, like a river runs free

Hard luck hero, can't you see

Well we got no cause, but you wanna be free

Hard luck hero, you and me

Gotta run, run, run, like a river runs free

For you and me

Yeah, for you and me
