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
When he holds my hand I'm so proud 'Cause he's not just one of the crowd My baby, oh he's the one To try the things they've never done Just because of that they say
CHORUS He's a rebel and he'll never ever be any good He's a rebel and he'll never ever be understood And just because he doesn't do what everybody else does That's no reason why I can't give him all my love He is always good to me, always treats me tenderly 'Cause he's not a rebel, no no no He's not a rebel, no no no, to me
INSTRUMENTAL
If they don't like him that way, they won't like me after today 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 And just because he doesn't do what everybody else does That's no reason why we can't share a love He is always good to me, good to him I'll try to be 'Cause he's not a rebel, no no no He's not a rebel, no no no, to me (He's not a rebel, no no no He's not a rebel, no no no He's not a rebel, no no no He's not a rebel, no no no)

Mona lisa, mona lisa, men have named you You're so like the lady with the mystic smile Is it only 'cause you're lonely they have blamed you? For that mona lisa strangeness in your smile?
Do you smile to tempt a lover, mona lisa? Or is this your way to hide a broken heart? Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep They just lie there and they die there Are you warm, are you real, mona lisa? Or just a cold and lonely lovely work of art?

Stagger Lee went home and he got his forty-four Said "I'm goin' to the barroom just to pay that debt I owe" Stagger Lee went to the barroom and he stood across the barroom door He said "Nobody move" and he pulled his forty-four
Stagger Lee shot Billy, oh he shot that poor boy so bad 'Til the bullet came through Billy and it broke the bartender's glass
