![]() Rebel Yell (1983) [ larger cover art ] |
Last night a little dancer came dancin' to my door
Last night a little angel came pumping on my floor
She said come on baby, you got a license for love
And if it expires, pray help from above, because
In the midnight hour, she cried more, more, more
With a rebel yell she cried more, more, more
In the midnight hour babe more, more, more
With a rebel yell more, more, more
More, more, more!
She don't like slavery, she won't sit and beg
But when I'm tired and lonely she sees me to bed
What sets you free and brought you to me, babe
What sets you free, I need you here by me, because
In the midnight hour, she cried more, more, more
With a rebel yell she cried more, more, more
In the midnight hour babe more, more, more
With a rebel yell more, more, more
He lives in his own heaven
Collects it to go from the seven eleven
Well, he's out all night to collect a fare
Just as long, just as long it don't mess up his hair
I walked the ward, for you, babe
A thousand miles, for you
I dried your tears, of pain, babe
A million times, for you
I'd sell my soul, for you, babe
For money to burn, for you
I'd give you all, and have none, babe
Just to, just to, just to, just to, to have you here by me, because
In the midnight hour, she cried more, more, more
With a rebel yell she cried more, more, more
In the midnight hour babe more, more, more
With a rebel yell she cried more, more, more
More, more, more!
Ooh yeah, little baby
She want more
More, more, more, more, more!
Ooh yeah, little angel
She want more
More, more, more, more, more!

Idol may have been the attraction, but his band was incredible—sorta like Mellencamp, good singer and songwriter who assembles a killer band. |
| kingart (Brooklyn NY) | Posted: Jul 10, 2012 - 14:56 Almost 30 YEARS ago?! Serious? Billy's sneering. Great rockin'. |

| msymmes (Toronto, CA) | Posted: Apr 06, 2012 - 09:49 This belongs on RP for sure. But, Bill, are you just messing with our minds? Can't help but think you are taking a subliminal shot at that American Idol crap. |

| Cynaera (In a hammock under my own vine and fig tree.) | Posted: Dec 01, 2011 - 12:00 He had some great rockabilly vibes - I love "To Be A Lover" and "Hot In The City." This one isn't one of my favorites, although the absolute passion still can get me on my feet, pumping my fist in the air. ![]() |
| gb72797 (Saint Paul) | Posted: Dec 01, 2011 - 11:54 Let's see how far this goes before the song gets slammed - Big Fun Rockin! Wish I could make my guitar do that! |
| PA1749 (Room 106) | Posted: Dec 01, 2011 - 11:53 Idol ruled in the early 80's! I remember joggin and listening to this on a cassette in my walkman. |

| Seahunt (Parent's Basement) | Posted: Dec 01, 2011 - 11:53 I had to make sure I had not changed stations. Go ahead Bill! Bill has a little Billy Idol look to him don't ya think? C'mon Bill, clench the fist and purse the lips ![]() |
