Rebel Woman

Tired and dusty
She sat by the road
Her green spotted uniform
And her sneakers
Outworn
Rebel woman, yeah
She took off her hat
And she leaned against a tree
Her rifle by her side
Rough, worn hands
Upon her knee
Rebel woman, yeah
Rebel woman, yeah
There will be no compensation
It was of your free will
Oh, that you stood on the frontline
Rebel woman
These are the rules of war
Remember that you fought for your people
I know the freedom’s been hard won
It’s been so hard won
But as you weep, rebel woman
Remember you were strong
Her corner pocket
Hid a pack of cigars
She took one out and lit it
Threw the rest into the grass
Rebel woman, yeah
Rebel woman, yeah
Oh oh oh
The bush grew around her
Dense, hot and green
Over the place where once
Her home
Her husband
Her children
Where once they’d been
There will be no compensation
It was of your free will
Oh, that you stood on the frontline
Rebel woman
These are the rules of war
Remember that you fought for your people
I know the freedom’s been hard won
It’s been so hard won
But as you weep, rebel woman
Remember you were strong
Rebel woman
Rebel woman, yeah
