"Refugee" lyrics
(feat. Lainey Wilson)
(originally by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers)
We got somethin', we both know it
We don't talk too much about it
It ain't no real big secret all the same
Somehow we get around it
Listen, it don't really matter to me, baby
You believe what you want to believe
You see, you don't have to live like a refugee
(Oh you don't have to live like a refugee)
Somewhere, somehow, somebody
Must have kicked you around some
So tell me why you wanna lay there
And revel in your abandon
Honey, it don't make no difference to me, baby
Everybody's had to fight to be free
You know, you don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee)
No baby, you don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee)
Honey, we ain't the first
I'm sure a lot of other lovers been burned
And right now this seems real to you
But it's one of those things you gotta feel to be true
Baby...
Somewhere, somehow, somebody
Must have kicked you around some
Who knows, maybe you were tied up
Taken away, and held for ransom
Honey, it don't really matter to me, baby
Everybody's had to fight to be free
You see, you don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee)
Oh no, you don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee)
No no no, you don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee)
No honey, you don't, you know you don't have to live like a refugee
Oh no, you don't have to live like a refugee
(You don't have to live like a refugee)
You don't have to live like a refugee
(You don't have to live like a refugee)
You don't have to live like a refugee
(You don't have to live like a refugee)
...
We don't talk too much about it
It ain't no real big secret all the same
Somehow we get around it
Listen, it don't really matter to me, baby
You believe what you want to believe
You see, you don't have to live like a refugee
(Oh you don't have to live like a refugee)
Somewhere, somehow, somebody
Must have kicked you around some
So tell me why you wanna lay there
And revel in your abandon
Honey, it don't make no difference to me, baby
Everybody's had to fight to be free
You know, you don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee)
No baby, you don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee)
Honey, we ain't the first
I'm sure a lot of other lovers been burned
And right now this seems real to you
But it's one of those things you gotta feel to be true
Baby...
Somewhere, somehow, somebody
Must have kicked you around some
Who knows, maybe you were tied up
Taken away, and held for ransom
Honey, it don't really matter to me, baby
Everybody's had to fight to be free
You see, you don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee)
Oh no, you don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee)
No no no, you don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee)
No honey, you don't, you know you don't have to live like a refugee
Oh no, you don't have to live like a refugee
(You don't have to live like a refugee)
You don't have to live like a refugee
(You don't have to live like a refugee)
You don't have to live like a refugee
(You don't have to live like a refugee)
...
