Lyrics

[Verse 1]

See the way he walks down the street

Watch the way he shuffles his feet

My, he holds his head up high when he goes walking by

He's my guy

[Verse 2]

When he holds my hand, I'm so proud

'Cause he's not just one of the crowd

[PreChorus]

My baby's always the one to try the things they've never done

And just because of that, they say

[Chorus]

He's a rebel, and he'll never, ever be any good

He's a rebel, 'cause he never, ever does what he should

But just because he doesn't do what everybody else does

That's no reason why I can't give him all my love

He's always good to me, always treats me tenderly

'Cause he's not a rebel, oh, no, no, no

He's not a rebel, oh, no, no, no, to me

[PreChorus]

If they don't like him that way, they won't like me after today

And I'll be standing right by his side when they say

[Chorus]

He's a rebel, and he'll never, ever be any good

He's a rebel, 'cause he never, ever does what he should

But just because he doesn't do what everybody else does

Oh, that's no reason why we can't share our love

He's always good to me, good to him, I try to be

'Cause he's not a rebel, no, no, no

He's not a rebel, no, no, no, to me

[Outro]

Oh, he's not a rebel, no, no, no (No, no, no)

He's not a rebel, no, no, no (No, no, no)

He's not a rebel, no, no, no (No, no, no)

He's not a rebel, no, no, no (No, no, no)

He's not a rebel, no, no, no (No, no, no)

He's not a rebel, no, no, no (No, no, no, no, no)

He's not a rebel, no, no, no (No, no, no)

He's not a rebel, no, no, no (No, no, no)

He's not a rebel, no, no, no (No, no, no, no, no)

He's not a rebel, no, no, no (Whoa, no)

He's not a rebel, no, no, no (No, no)

He's not a rebel, no, no, no (No, no, no)

He's not a rebel, no, no, no

He's not a rebel, no, no, no
