LYNYRD SKYNYRD LYRICS - The Last Rebel

"The Last Rebel"



There's a grey horse standin' still

As a soldier climbs in the saddle for one last ride

The rain pours off his hat

You can see the shadows of the past written in his eyes



Now the cannons are silent

His friends are all gone, gotta put it all behind him

If he ever wants to find his way home

He's the last rebel on the road



Just a boy with his old guitar

Keeps to himself but everybody takes him wrong

But he carried on, got a dream that will never die

Can't change him

No use in staying where you don't belong



Now he's rollin' down the highway

Gone too far too fast

No one will ever find him

He'll never look back



'Cause he's the last rebel

And he's all alone, He's the last rebel

His friends are all gone

He's the last rebel, the last rebel on the road



There'll never be another like him

He's the last of a dyin' breed

Ain't no use tryin' to change him

'Cause he's the last rebel

And he's all alone, He's the last rebel

His friends are all gone

He's the last rebel, the last rebel on the road
