Wild Rebel Rose Lyrics

Wild Rebel Rose
The kids used to tease you
Wild Rebel Rose
Every time they�d see you in those black turtle necks in mid-July
Wearin� too much makeup �round your eyes

Wild Rebel Rose
I didn�t know you
Wild Rebel Rose
So I never told you how I�d watch from the house across the street
When those blue lights came around at least three times a week
It�s hard for anyone to understand why at sixteen you just up and ran
But they didn�t know you only knew your daddy�s love like the back of his hand

I heard the shots
I saw you hit the door
I snuck in and grabbed that pistol off the floor
Don�t you worry they won�t find it that�s for sure

Wild Rebel Rose
The kids used to tease you
Wild Rebel Rose
Every time they�d see you in those black turtle necks in mid-July
Wearin� too much makeup �round your eyes

Mmm, oh, Wild, Wild, Wild Rebel Rose
They didn�t know
Oooh, yeah, mmm
