Rebel with a Cause Lyrics


Johnny Rebel held his flag up high, 'cos he didn't wanna see it burn

The immigrants tried to wipe him out, but his pride they couldn't turn

For his land he would fight to the death, like a warrior of the old days

To see the immigrants overrun his land made ol' Johnny rage

Rebel with a cause, you held your flag up high

Rebel with a cause, couldn't see your country die

Rebel with a cause, your country's changing fast

Rebel with a cause, your pride will forever last

He had the power to take back his land

Though he could not do it alone

'Cos the White man you must wake up

Wherever your flags are flown

Rebel with a cause, you held your flag up high

Rebel with a cause, couldn't see your country die

Rebel with a cause, your country's changing fast

Rebel with a cause, your pride will forever last

Johnny Rebel held his flag up high, 'cos he didn't wanna see it burn

The immigrants tried to wipe him out, but his pride they couldn't turn

For his land he would fight to the death, like a warrior of the old days

To see the immigrants overrun his land made ol' Johnny rage

Rebel with a cause, you held your flag up high

Rebel with a cause, couldn't see your country die

Rebel with a cause, your country's changing fast

Rebel with a cause, your pride will forever last
