Young Rebel Minds Songtext
von Mentana

A couple of cigarettes, a quarter tank of gas
A twenty-dollar bill, guess we′re headin' down south
Pawned my guitar, you sold some grass
Once we′d crossed the border we'd see what it's all about

Flags flew half-mast in the New York sky
People grew wary of strangers passin′ by
But we knew we′d get high, just around the bend
I still remember you were smiling back then

Young rebel minds, riding easy
Gold candid times and no worries

The car broke down in Brownsville Texas
Packed our bags and hoped for the best
Kings in the evenings, vagabonds in the mornings
Spent all our fortune to keep those beers a-comin'
Folks back there, thought we were lookin′ for trouble
You got into this fight we had to run for our lives
We were ragged and reckless under southern Texas sky
No one could ever tell us that we couldn't fly


Young rebel minds, riding easy
Gold candid times and no worries

We had no choice, hell we had no wheels
Walked across that bridge, made it down to Matamoros
Two one-way tickets as far as we could go
Where we′d end up, hell we didn't know

We met a girl, she was a wounded soldier
Livin′ off the army's dime
Paid for the room, then she paid for the wine
She would never be yours, never be mine

Young rebel minds, riding easy
Gold candid times and no worries

It's been a while
Since i′ve seen you
I was passin′ by, just passin' by
It′s been a while
Since i've seen you
I was passin′ by, just passin' by
I was passin′ by, just passin' by
