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 |
