Refugee Lyrics

Artist: Tom Petty

We got somethin' we both know it
We don't talk too much about it
Yeah it ain't no real big secret all the same
Somehow we get around it
Listen it don't really matter to me baby
You believe what you want to believe
You see you don't have to live like a refugee

Somewhere, somehow somebody
Must have kicked you around some
Tell me why you wanna lay there
And revel in your abandon
Listen it don't make no difference to me baby
Everybody's had to fight to be free
You see you don't have to live like a refugee
Now baby you don't have to live like a refugee

Baby we ain't the first
I'm sure a lot of other lover's been burned
Right now this seems real to you
But it's one of those things
You gotta feel to be true

Somewhere, somehow somebody
Must have kicked you around some
Who knows, maybe you were kidnapped
Tied up, taken away and held for ransom
It don't really matter to me
Everybody's had to fight to be free
You see you don't have to live like a refugee
I said you don't have to live like a refugee

by putyourendtowar on 7/15/2008 3:46am yeh, but you don't have to live like a refugee...
by PAUL MEMOLI on 8/26/2008 7:39am This song is used in drug rehabs...it acknowleges that some bad things may have happened to the singer, as well as the person he's singing to, and caused trauma, but says that despite this, you don't have to let it control your life. You don't have to live like a refugee!

by Coloradopink on 8/1/2009 8:31pm A refugee is someone who is fleeing from oppression - love...true love does not oppress or abuse. God is love and seeks that which is lost, if your heart has been "lost" among abuse of any kind, he is there to rescue you...just call out to him, he hears you and sees you.
