Lyrics Rickie Lee Jones

Rickie Lee Jones

Rebel Rebel

Got your mother in a whirl

'Cause she's not sure if you're a boy or a girl

Hey, babe, your hair's alright

Hey, babe, let's stay out tonight

You like me and I like it all

We like dancing and we look divine

You know fans when they play it hard

They want more and you want it first

Put you down and say I'm wrong

Tacky thing, you put them on

Rebel rebel, you've torn your dress

Rebel rebel, your face is a mess

Rebel rebel, how could they know?

Hot tramp, I love you so

Doo doo doo

Got your mother in a whirl

'Cause she's not sure if you're a boy or a girl

Hey babe, your hair's alright

Hey babe, let's stay out tonight

You like me and I like it all

We like dancing and we look divine

You know fans when they play it hard

You want more and you want it first

They put you down, say I'm wrong

You tacky thing, you put them on

Rebel rebel, you've torn your dress

Rebel rebel, your face is a mess

Rebel rebel, how could they know?

Hot tramp, I love you so

Doo doo doo

Rebel rebel, you've torn your dress

Rebel rebel, your face is a mess

Rebel rebel, how could they know?

Hot tramp, I love you so

You've torn your dress, your face is a mess

You can't get enough but enough ain't the test

You've got a transmission and a live wire

Got your few lines and a handful of dues

You gonna be there when they count up the blues

I love your dress, I love your dress

You're a juvenile success

Because your face is a mess

How could they know?

How could they know?

But what you wanna do

Or where you wanna go?

Wish I could do for you

Wish I'd been there too

Because you've torn your dress

Torn your dress

(Rebel, rebel)

And your face is a mess

(Rebel, rebel)

Your face is a mess

(Rebel, rebel)

Your face is a mess

(Rebel, rebel)

So how could they know?

How could they know?

Torn your dress, torn your dress

And how can they know?
