Nicolette Larson - Rebel In The Rain

Been listening to the news on the radio
They say there's gonna be heat in this old town tonight
And there's a rumbling in the air it's not thunder
Trouble's coming, someone's bound to die

Somebody's got to play the local hero
Tell me why do they always have to come to you?
Say that you're not afraid, hey that's not the point
I can tell you what you'll get, you're gonna wind up getting wet

And you're the rebel in the rain, everybody knows your name
Out in the street you're my rebel in the rain
And you haven't got the right to make yourself a sacrifice
It's me who's in love with the rebel in the rain
And you're acting like James Dean
But you're not him, you're the rebel in the rain

What have you got to prove? You say I gotta go
All your friends will be needing lots of help tonight
You say what have I got to lose? I say you got me
It's on the rebel in the rain they'll put the blame
Yeah

So confident that you'll win I shouldn't worry
But I tell you something true, winner's gonna get hurt too

Oh, you're the rebel in the rain, everybody knows your name
Out in the street you're my rebel in the rain, yeah
And you haven't got the right to make yourself a sacrifice
It's me who's in love with the rebel in the rain, oh, oh yeah

You're the rebel in the rain, everybody knows your name
Out in the street you're my rebel in the rain
And you haven't a right to make yourself a sacrifice
It's me who's in love with the rebel in the rain
And you're acting like James Dean
But you're not him, you're the rebel in the rain

You're the rebel in the rain, (everybody knows), everybody knows your name
(Out in the street) Out in the street you're my rebel in the rain (oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
And you haven't a right to make yourself, (to make yourself), a sacrifice
It's me who's in love with the rebel in the rain, (oh yeah, yeah, yeah, woo)

You're the rebel in the rain (oh, oh), everybody knows your name
Out in the street you're my rebel in the rain (oh, oh)
And you haven't the right, (haven't ever got the right), to make yourself a sacrifice
It's me who's in love with the rebel in the rain
