Steppenwolf - Renegade Lyrics
My birthplace would be hard to findIt changed so many timesI'm not sure where it belongsBut they tell me the Baltic coast is full of amberAnd the land was greenBefore the tanks cameOne day I learned just how it used to beThe devils' curse brought the whole world to it's kneesAnd it was "Hey you, keep your head downDon't look around, please don't make a soundIf they should find you nowThe Man will shoot you down"It's a mighty long way out of the darknessTo where the sun is free to shineOh! The truck came by to put us in the backAnd left us where the railroad tracks cross the lineThen the border guide took us by the handAnd led us thru the hole into the promise land beyondAnd I can hear him nowWhispering soft and low"When you get to the other sideJust run like hell"I thought I had a quiet placeWhere I could learn how to catch my childhood dreamsBut on my left and to my right they keep on shoutingWhile I'm just stuck here in betweenLord! I'm tried of running and I don't believe I canI can hear them calling time and time againAnd it's "Hey you, keep your head downDon't look around, please, don't make a soundIf they should find you nowThe Man will shoot you down"
