Puck: Well, we bursted out of class Had to get away from those fools We learned more from a 3-minute record, baby Than we ever learned in school
Tonight I hear the neighborhood drummer sound I can feel my heart begin to pound You say you're tired and you just want to close your eyes And follow your dreams down
Well, we made a promise we swore we'd always remember No retreat, baby, no surrender Like soldiers on the winter's night With a vow to defend No retreat, baby, no surrender
Well, now young faces grow sad and old And hearts of fire grow cold We swore blood brothers against the wind And I'm ready to grow young again
And I hear your sister's voice calling us home Across the open yards Well even we can cut someplace of our own With these drums and these guitars
'Cause we made a promise we swore we'd always remember No retreat, baby, no surrender Blood brothers on a summer's night With a vow to defend No retreat, baby, no surrender
Huh ah ah ah ah ah ah Huh ah ah ah ah ah ah
Now out on the streets tonight the lights are growing dim And the walls of my room are closing in But it's good to see your smiling face And to hear your voice again
Now we can sleep in the twilight By the river bed With a wide open country in our hearts And these romantic dreams in our hands
'Cause we made a promise we swore we'd always remember No retreat, baby, no surrender Blood brothers on a summer's night With a vow to defend No retreat, baby, no surrender
