Renegade

Some prayers never reach the sky

Some wounds never heal

They still say someday the South will rise

Man, I want to see that deal



I don't want to grow old gracefully

I don't want to go 'til it's too late I'll

be some old man in the road somewhere

Kneeling down in the dust by the side of the Interstate



I am a renegade

I've been a rebel all my days

I am a renegade

I've been a rebel all my days



We were hopelessly outnumbered

It was a lost cause all along

But when we heard the bugles call

We swore we'd stand or fall together right or wrong



We ain't seen no reconstruction here

Just the scorched earth all around

And the high school band played "Dixieland"

While they tore our tattered flags and banners down



I am a renegade

I've been a rebel all my days

I am a renegade

I've been a rebel all my days



Some prayers never reach the sky

Some wars never end

Some dreams refuse to die

Next time I would rather break than bend



I am a renegade

I've been a rebel all my days

I am a renegade

I've been a rebel all my days
