Renegade Lyrics

Renegade lyrics

My birthplace would be hard to find 

It's changed so many times 

I'm not
sure where it belongs 

But they tell me the Baltic coast is full of amber


And the land was green 

Before the tanks came 

One day I learned
just how it used to be 

The devils' curse brought the whole world to it's
knees 



And it was "Hey you, keep your head down 

Don't you look
around, please don't make a sound 

If they should find you now 

The Man
will shoot you down" 



It's a mighty long way out of the darkness


To where the sun is free to shine 

Oh the truck came by to put us in
the back 

And left us where the railroad tracks cross the line 

Then
the border guide took us by the hand 

And led us thru the hole into the
promise land beyond 



And I can hear him now 

Whispering soft and
low 

"When you get to the other side 

Just you run like hell"




I thought I found a quiet place 

Where I could learn how to catch
my childhood dreams 

But on my left and to my right they keep on shouting


While I'm just stuck here in between 

Lord I'm tried of running and I
don't believe I can 

I can hear them calling time and time again




And it's "Hey you, keep your head down 

Don't you look around,
please, don't make a sound 

If they should find you now 

The Man will
shoot you down"
