All the nights pitch black, all the lights are out
I am sittin' in a pub and havin' a stout
The door opens up, my dad steps in
He says, son, as you know, I'm not free from sin
I was yesterday's rebel, ooh, oh
I was yesterday's rebel
I had to ring the death knell
I was yesterday's rebel, ooh, oh
I was yesterday's rebel
Now I find myself in hell
When I was your age, I joined the IRA
Hard times filled with cries of dismay
I fought in the name of 40 shades of green
A boy with a gun, that's what
I was yesterday's rebel, ooh, oh
I was yesterday's rebel
I had to ring the death knell
I was yesterday's rebel, ooh, oh
I was yesterday's rebel
Now I find myself in hell
At the age of 21, I shot a constable down
We lived door by door in the same town
I couldn't get over it, I felt dead inside
For the promises of freedom, no more I will fight
And now I want to save you as well
I was yesterday's rebel, ooh, oh
I was yesterday's rebel
I had to ring the death knell
I was yesterday's rebel, ooh, oh
I was yesterday's rebel
Now I find myself in hell
I was yesterday's rebel, ooh, oh
I was yesterday's rebel
I had to ring the death knell
I was yesterday's rebel, ooh, oh
I was yesterday's rebel
Now I find myself in hell
