Rebels of the Sacred Heart (live)

If you're in good voice, Los Angeles
Let's hear you, alright

Now I'm (aiming for Heaven)
(But probably wind up down in Hell)
These guys are certainly looking forward tonight, that's for sure
Where upon this altar
I will hang my guilt-ridden head

But it's time I'll take before I begin
Three sheets to the wind, three sheets to the wind
Yeah, it's time I'll take before I begin
Three sheets to the wind, three sheets to the wind

Rebels are we
Though heavy our hearts shall always be

And no ball or chain, no prison shall keep
We're the rebels of the sacred heart
I said no ball or chain, no prison shall keep
We're the rebels of the sacred heart

Genuflect all you refugees
Who fled the land, now on guilt you kneel
Say a prayer for those left behind
From beyond the pale to the northern sky

You saved your shillings, your last sixpence
'Cause in God's name they built a barbed-wire fence
Be glad you sailed for a better day
But don't forget there'll be hell to pay

Rebels are we
Though heavy our hearts shall always be

And no ball or chain, no prison shall keep
We're the rebels of the sacred heart
I said, no ball or chain, no prison shall keep
We're the rebels of the sacred heart

Genuflect all you refugees
Who fled the land, now on guilt you kneel
Say a prayer for those left behind
From beyond the pale to the northern sky

You saved your shillings, your last sixpence
'Cause in God's name they built a barbed-wire fence
Be glad you sailed for a better day
But don't forget there'll be hell to pay

Rebels are we
Heavy our hearts shall always be

And no ball or chain, no prison shall keep
We're the rebels of the sacred heart
I said, no ball or chain, no prison shall keep
We're the rebels of the sacred heart
Play it
Resurrection, no protection
All things life must be
And no ball or chain, no prison shall keep
We're the rebels of the sacred heart

So I
Bless me father for I have sinned
I guess that makes me human, father
But it's the same old story again and again and again
I will

Such is the bread of an everyday life
From morning to noon to the shadowless night
I will such is the bread of an everyday life
From morning to noon to the shadowless night

Rebels are we
Though heavy our hearts shall always be

And no ball or chain, no prison shall keep
We're the rebels of the sacred heart
I said, no ball or chain, no prison shall keep
We're the rebels of the sacred heart

Rebels are we
Though heavy our hearts shall always be

And no ball or chain, no prison shall keep
We're the rebels of the sacred heart
I said, no ball or chain, no prison shall keep
We're the rebels of the sacred heart

I, said no ball or chain, no prison shall keep
We're the rebels of the sacred heart
We're the rebels of the sacred heart
