She Needs to Know (early rough demo)

You've always
been a rebel
raised up
from your daddy's knee
a little bit wild
and you had
to do things
your way
playing
by the rules
that was not
your style
but now she's home
waiting
for the phone
to ring
for the wife
of a rebel
it's the same
old thing

She needs to know
you need her
now and then
she needs to know
you'll be there
through thick and thin
she needs to know
you will always
be her man

Like a wind
upon the prairie
you blew into her life
one empty summer night
with all the promises
you made her
it seemed
like every dream
she had
could come to life
but now she's home
waiting
for the phone
to ring
for the wife
of a rebel
it's the same
old thing

She needs to know
you need her
now and then
she needs to know
you'll be there
through thick
and thin
she needs to know
you will always
be her man

Remembering
the night it was
you married her
and how you swore
the dream
would never
end
it's funny
how that dream
is all but forgotten now
and here she finds
herself
all alone
again
all alone
waiting
for the phone
to ring
for the wife
of a rebel
it's the same
old thing

She needs to know
you need her
now and then
she needs to know
you'll be there
through thick
and thin
she needs to know
you will always
be her man

be her man

she needs to know
you will always

she needs to know
you will always
be her man

be her man

be her man
