We got somethin' we both know itWe don't talk too much about itYeah it ain't no real big secret all the sameSomehow we get around itListen it don't really matter to me babyYou believe what you want to believeYou see you don't have to live like a refugeeSomewhere, somehow somebodyMust have kicked you around someTell me why you wanna lay thereAnd revel in your abandonListen it don't make no difference to me babyEverybody's had to fight to be freeYou see you don't have to live like a refugeeNow baby you don't have to live like a refugeeBaby we ain't the firstI'm sure a lot of other lover's been burnedRight now this seems real to youBut it's one of those thingsYou gotta feel to be trueSomewhere, somehow somebodyMust have kicked you around someWho knows, maybe you were kidnappedTied up, taken away and held for ransomIt don't really matter to meEverybody's had to fight to be freeYou see you don't have to live like a refugeeI said you don't have to live like a refugee
