Refugee - Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

We got somethin', we both know it,
We don't talk too much about it
Ain't no real big secret all the same,
somehow, we get around it

It don't really matter to me, baby,
You believe what you want to believe,
You don't have to live like a refugee
(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

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
(Don't have to live like a refugee)

Baby, we ain't the first
I'm sure a lot of other lovers 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, baby,
Everybody's had to fight to be free,
You see you don't have to live like a refugee
