pony bradshaw - rebel lyrics

Loading...

[chorus]
daddy, when i grow up
i want to paint my portrait true
daddy, when i grow up
i want to be a rebel like you

[verse 1]
from h+ll to breakfast man cuts him a path
to his long home over yonder, east of the tracks
i’ve come to see the country not to make good time
hang you a horse thief, hang you a card cheat or two

snake beat the heat of his own vice
ate his apples wild and did not forget to exercise
the bitter fruit of truth culled from the tree
of vanity you cannot escape

[chorus]
daddy, when i grow up
i want to paint my portrait true
daddy, when i grow up
i want to be a rebel like you

[verse 2]
old bill faulker, the whiskey chief
with his songs of life and black+eyed peas
he spread his wings and flew across the big bad sea
came back a poet with a beard and a coat of fleas
bill walks into a mississippi bar
god is dead, he screams, god is dead
but ain’t n0body listening to the little southern man
eating homemade drop biscuits and country fried ham

[chorus]
daddy, when i grow up
i want to paint my portrait true
daddy, when i grow up
i want to be a rebel like you

[verse 3]
fred douglas begged brown to heel
don’t do it, johnny! don’t do it, johnny!
200 sharps and one thousand pikes
don’t do it, johnny! don’t do it, mr. brown!

robert e. lee and his fatal memory
all for the sake of his sweet virginny
hours mount like united states
turning days to years, campaigns to clear our conscience

[chorus]
daddy, when i grow up
i want to paint my portrait true
daddy, when i grow up
i want to be a rebel like you
