No Surrender

Well, we busted out of class had to get away from those fools
We learned more from a three minute record baby, than we ever learned in school

Tonight I hear the neighborhood drummer sound
I can feel your heart begin to pound
you say you're tired and you just want to close your eyes
and follow your dreams down

well, we made a promise we swore we'd always remember no retreat no surrender
blood brothers on a winter's night with a vow to defend, no retreat no surrender

well, when our young faces grow sad and old and hearts of fire grow cold,
we swore blood brothers against the wind and now i'm ready to grow young again
and hear your sister's voice calling us home across the open yards believin' 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, no surrender
blood brothers on a winters night with a vow to defend
no retreat baby, no surrender

well out on the street tonight the lights are growin' dim
the walls of my room are closin' in
but it's good to see your smilin' face and to hear your voice again
we could sleep out in the twilight by the river bed
with the wide open country in our hearts and these romantic dreams in our heads

well, we made a promise we swore we'd always remember
no retreat baby, no surrender
blood brothers on a summer's night with a vow to defend
no retreat baby, no surrender
no retreat baby, no surrender
