Lyrics
Honey, don't you walk out
I'm too drunk to follow
I know you won't feel this way tomorrow
A little rough around the edges
Insides a little hollow
I feel so beat down and
It's so hard to swallow
Hey, hey, hey
(Hey, hey, hey)
I was born a rebel
Down in Dixie
(Hey, hey, hey)
On a Sunday mornin'
With one foot in the ground
And one foot on the pedal
I was born a rebel
You picked me up in the mornin'
And you paid off my ticket
You screamed in the car
And left me out in the thicket
Well, I never would've dreamed
That her heart was so wicked
But I keep comin' back
'Cause it's so hard to kick it
Hey, hey, hey
(Hey, hey, hey)
I was born a rebel
Down in Dixie
(Hey, hey, hey)
On a Sunday mornin'
With one foot in the ground
And one foot on the pedal
I was born a rebel
I was born a rebel
Even before my father's fathers
They called us all rebels
As they burned our cornfields
And left our cities leveled
Well, I still feel the eyes of them blue bellied devils
While I'm walking around through the concrete and metal
Hey, hey, hey
(Hey, hey, hey)
I was born a rebel
Down in Dixie
(Hey, hey, hey)
On a Sunday mornin'
Yeah, with one foot in the ground
And one foot on the pedal
I was born a rebel
I was born a rebel
Hey, hey, hey
(Hey, hey, hey)
Hey, hey, hey
(Hey, hey, hey)
