NO SURRENDER

Lyrics By Bruce Springsteen

We busted out of class

had to get away from those fools

We learned more from a three minute record,

than we ever learned in school

Tonight I hear the neighborhood drummer sound

I can feel my heart begin to pound

You say you're tired

and you just want to close your eyes

and follow your dreams down

 

We made a promise

we swore we'd always remember

No retreat, baby, no surrender

Like soldiers in the winter's night

with a vow to defend

No retreat, baby, no surrender

 

Now young faces grow sad and old

and hearts of fire grow cold

We swore blood brothers against the wind

Now I'm ready to grow young again

And hear your sister's voice calling us home

across the open yards

Well maybe we could cut someplace of our own

With these drums and these guitars

 

We made a promise

we swore we'd always remember

No retreat, baby, no surrender

Blood brothers in the stormy night

with a vow to defend

No retreat, baby, no surrender

 

Now on the street tonight the lights grow dim

The walls of my room are closing in

There's a war outside still raging

you say it ain't ours anymore to win

I want to sleep beneath peaceful skies

in my lover's bed

with a wide open country in my eyes

and these romantic dreams in my head

 

We made a promise

we swore we'd always remember

No retreat, baby, no surrender

Blood brothers in the winter's night

with a vow to defend

No retreat, baby, no surrender
