Barclay James Harvest - Rebel Woman lyrics

They say that hell hath no fury

A fact that I can't deny

I see the victims of circumstance

Convicted without a crime

Call it aggressive behaviour

Call it the need to be free

Call it the cry of the innocent

That no-one can believe

Rebel, rebel woman, I know you well

Rebel, rebel woman, I know you well

They say there's truth in the old truths

No reason to cheat or lie

We're caught in the crossfire

Convicted without a trial

This mother's scorn is a strange thing

She pays her children for love

She heeds the cry of their innocence

They pay her with their blood

Rebel, rebel woman, I know you well

Rebel, rebel woman, I know you well

They say that hell hath no fury

A fact that I can't deny

I see the victims of circumstance

Convicted without a crime

Another plane in the ocean

Another wall in the sky

The victims of circumstance

Convicted without a trial

Rebel, rebel woman, I know you well

Rebel, rebel woman, I know you well
