Lyrics

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤

See the way he walks down the streetWatch the way he shuffles his feetMy, he holds his head up highWhen he goes walking by, he’s my guy
When he holds my hand, I’m so proud‘Cause he’s not just one of the crowdMy baby’s always the one to try the things they’ve never doneAnd just because of that, they say
“He’s a rebel and he’ll never ever be any goodHe’s a rebel ’cause he never ever does what he should”But just because he doesn’t do what everybody else doesThat’s no reason why I can’t give him all my love
He’s always good to me, always treats me tenderly‘Cause he’s not a rebel, oh, no, no, noHe’s not a rebel, oh, no, no, no, to me
If they don’t like him that wayThey won’t like me after todayI’ll be standing right by his side when they say
“He’s a rebel and he’ll never ever be any goodHe’s a rebel ’cause he never ever does what he should”Just because he doesn’t do what everybody else doesThat’s no reason why we can’t share our love
He’s always good to me, good to him, I try to be‘Cause he’s not a rebel, oh, no, no, noHe’s not a rebel, oh, no, no, no, to me
Oh, he’s not a rebel, oh, no, no, noHe’s not a rebel, oh, no, no, noHe’s not a rebel, oh, no, no, noHe’s not a rebel, oh, no, no, no
He’s not a rebel, oh, no, no, noHe’s not a rebel, oh, no, no, noHe’s not a rebel, oh, no, no, noHe’s not a rebel, oh, no, no,
He’s not a rebel, oh, no, no, noHe’s not a rebel, oh, no, no, noHe’s not a rebel, oh, no, no, noHe’s not a rebel, oh, no, no, no
