Rebel

The headlights of my daddy's car are dimmer than the moon
 And the radio is playin' low, it's Johnny Cash in June
 I know these hills, these twisted roads, I know their every turn
 As the city sits below and like a distant fire it burns
 'Cause I'm a rebel to the one I love
 Her heart so far from me
 Yeah I'm a rebel to the one I love
 Just a man who's lost at sea
 I was born in east Los Angeles, my father walked the beach
 So, out of spite, I turned to petty crime upon the streets
 'Til I met this girl at the pool home and you know she knocked me off my feet
 And I swore to change my wicked ways and win her heart to me
 So we married in the month of May and we moved up in the hills
 And like my old man I joined the police force to pay the bills
 But when a crooked sargent called me in yeah and I wouldn't play the game
 Well, he took my badge and he took my gun and he sent me off in shame
 'Cause I'm a rebel to the one I love
 Her heart so far from me
 Yeah I'm a rebel to the one I love
 Just a man who's lost at sea
 So I tried my hand at selling cars, but I couldn't make a poor man buy
 Then I drove a truck, but I hated all those long and dusty miles
 So now I sell that cocaine honey yeah up in the hills of Hollywood
 And the one I love, she left me, and in truth, I knew she would
 'Cause I'm a rebel to the one I love
 Her heart so far from me
 Yeah I'm a rebel to the one I love
 Just a lover lost at sea
 'Cause I'm a rebel to the one I love
 Her heart so far from me
 Yeah I'm a rebel to the one I love
 Just a man who's lost at sea
