No Surrender

We busted out of class had to get away from those foolsWe learned more from a three-minute recordThat we ever learned in schoolTonight I hear the neighborhood drummer soundI can feel my heart begin to poundYou say you're tired and you just want to closeYour eyes and follow your dreams downChorus:We made a promise we swore we'd always rememberNo retreat no surrenderLike soldiers in the winter's night with a vowto defendNo retreat no surrenderNow young faces grow sad and old and heartsof fire grow coldWe swore blood brothers against the windI'm ready to grow young againAnd hear yur sister's voice calling us homeAcroos the open yardsBelievin' we could cut someplace of our ownWith these drums and these guitarsChorus:We made a promise we swore we'd always rememberNo retreat no surrenderLike soldiers in the winter's night with a vowto defendNo retreat no surrenderBlood brother in the stormy night with a vow to defendNo retreat no surrenderNow on the street tonight the lights gro dimThe walls of my room are closing inBut it's good to see your smiling faceAnd to hear your voice againWe could sleep in the twilightBy the river bedWith a wide open country in our heartsAnd these romantic dreams in our headsChorus:We made a promise we swore we'd always rememberNo retreat no surrenderLike soldiers in the winter's night with a vowto defendNo retreat no surrende
