CHIC - Rebels Are We Lyrics
We are the rebels, baby
Rebels are we
We want to be free
My baby and me
Rebels are we
Life's a switch, don't let it play a trick on you
Try not to be fooled, be wise
Don't throw a fit, stay calm and you'll be cool
You'll find a solution right before your eyes
I know much more now that I'm older
Just a little bolder, listen to me
We can't give up, now that we're movin'
We are the rebels, baby
Rebels are we
We want to be free
My baby and me
Nevertheless
Rebels are we
Don't cage us in, we might just surprise you
In order to convince you, we will
Oh, no, you can't take away our freedom
And get this straight, for that we won't be still
The time is now and if we have to fight
Come on let's unite, we got to do it soon
We're gonna win, on that you can depend
'Cause if you don't, me and my baby are goin' to the moon
We are the rebels, baby
Rebels are we
We want to be free
My baby and me
Nevertheless
Rebels are we
My baby and me
We are the rebels, baby
Rebels are we
We want to be free
My baby and me
Nevertheless
Rebels are we
My baby and me
Rebels
Rebels
Rebels, baby
Rebels
Rebels, baby
Rebels
Rebels, baby
Rebels
Rebels, baby
Rebels
We are the rebels, baby
Rebels are we
We want to be free
My baby and me
Nevertheless
Rebels are we
My baby and me
We are the rebels, baby
Rebels are we
We want to be free
My baby and me
Nevertheless
Rebels are we
My baby and me
We are the rebels, baby
Rebels are we
We want to be free
My baby and me
Nevertheless
Rebels are we
My baby and me
We are the rebels, baby
Rebels are we
We want to be free
My baby and me
Nevertheless
Rebels are we

CHIC Rebels Are We Comments
Real Music Period!!
This song had great rhythm and lyrics that spoke to you and kept you in the mix of the groove!!! Stan.
Those brothers were simply just badass!
Bought this album on Market Street when I was a kid and took it home and played it about 30 times. Great stuff for our times. It spoke to us at the times!!! Stan.
AMAzing, a solid riff in a Chic song! love it
2019 and this is still blastin'!
Like the message in this.
I want to go to Chic Heaven and live there forever!
My 1980 jam.
They were fabulous but not being able to live down the Disco Movement was very hard. Tony Thompson (RIP) would later join The Power Station while Bernard Edwards & Nile Rogers became successful Songwriters working with everyone from Madonna, Diana Ross, Sister Sledge and David Bowie (RIP). One of their Songs We Are Family was also featured not only in The Birdcage but Popstars The Rivals as part of the Audition Process.
HAPPY 66TH BIRTHDAY NILE RODGERS (SEPTEMBER 19, 2018)
After being introduced as the sound of the future in 77, the bitterness of being labelled as the sound of the last decade in 80. Time goes by but this album remains as fresh as it appeared in this summer 80
She sounds tuff. Nice groove
I heard this back in the day, I didn't know that Chic sung this song!
Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards are working the guitar and bass man this is funk nasty!!!
Chic was my group back in the 70s-80s!!
(Loved their look, sound and style)👌🏾
I had this 45!!! 💜💜💜💜💜
I did too!
Of all their jams, this one was very underrated, but it was their best one, and my big favorite!
Tony Thompson is playing the hell out of this song! This is what a tight funky drummer sounds like and the few times I was able to hang with him in NYC will always be precious memories. He truly inspired me... R.I.P. Tony
Kenneth Parks BRO!!! You are so lucky!!! He shut it DOWN in the 80's!!! That Power Station LP alone should be required listening for ANY drummer!!!
SANTIAGO 70 RIVI ALBUQUERQUE BLVD CRUISER
Don't be Fooled ... There's some Fierceness goin' here!
A Leyva Absolutely without a doubt..... I'm stilll vibing this in 2017❤❤
A Leyva some fierceness to the highest level this is incredible they blazed on that bass and guitar for sure!!!
Fantastic Musicianship
While this son was an R&B hit, it came after the disco backlash which affected Chic as well as other groups. It's a shame because Chic was the one act that should have been revered.
No doubt Nile,Benard sampled Cream "Sunshine Of Your Love"69' for this one.Tony Thompson watered down imitation of legendary Ginger Baker on drums.Ginger the O G Bad Ass.Clapton proud sure.
Chic has never had a sample of anybody's song on any of there album's. I just listened to cream's Sunshine of your love 3 times. It doesn't sound anything like this.
markeith k ***thank you my brother from another mother. I am totally with you on that. Peace and love.....chic-chic.🎶🎶🎶
One song can inspire another but Chic never out and out "sampled" anyone's music. Nile didn't even know his own music was "being sampled" when Rapper's Delight was ripping him off.
Nile admits that Good Times is the Chic version of Hollywood Swinging by Kool and the Gang, if he had written it. It was inspired by it... his cousin was a member of K&TheG.
TB 123 WTF?!?
Daaaaaaamn. It's been 36 years since I've heard this song.
Luci Martin
Here for the Orlando 50...And all the fighters, strivers and survivors. Haters, consider yourself put on NOTICE!
This is STILL the JAMMM!
Just another example Bernie and Nile were top notch.
Mortis xx. YES INDEED, IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD!!
This is one of my FAVORITE Chic songs of ALL TIME, even more that Le Freak and Good Times, even though I love those tunes too... Also OPEN UP this this album "Real People" is nothing short of genius!
Love the whole album!!!
tyme to shake your booty..........ooooh yeah........lol..........lovin it.
entered Billboard Aug 30, 1980 ..reached #61
That bass and guitar-synchro-line starting at 2:26.... How epic, how wonderful. All bassplayers should be learning to play this.
Aldo Pereboom HELL YES!! That break is RIDICULOUS!!!
This song never got it's due, it was awesome I still have the vinyl and yet how many know they are the ones who wrote all of Sister Sledge's music? Diana Ross's really great jams? They were robbed of song writers of '79 Grammies.
Robert Kramer I hear y
Not to mention David Bowie's cut "Let's Dance". Chic wrote that too.
The only person that wrote "Let's Dance " was David Bowie.
The solo guitar part of this song between 2:26 -3:44 is insane.
Jeff Worthen That break is sick!!
Sure is.
I thought I knew all good Chic songs, but I only knew the Best Of Chic which is awesome but not complete
Summer of 1980
Chic was a Yankee band, but this song was clearly a flower for the South.
Thanks for posting this, it took so long for someone to put my favorite Chic song and my person theme song on YT.
great sound many thanks TVchannel02...youtube
Love,Love,Love....this song!
THATS MY JAM!!! 😁👍
this song only went to #61 on the pop charts in 1980!!!
the world's greatest musicians ever they made me a guitarist thanks nile and bernard!
Remind me of my birthday party... In the garage. Fun days.
Loved hearing this on the radio in 1980. I was the funkiest white boy I knew. WZEN Alton Illinois / St. Louis
Love this song. Folks slept on this cut.
Most did sleep on this one but not me, from day one it's been one of my favorites.
This album is bad ass all the way through ...
Perfect_ Fit. I couldn't agree more!!
Classic Chic.
I remember hearing this on WBLS back in the day.
recordspins 🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒
I BOUGHT THIS ALBUM THE MINUTE IT CAME OUT. UNFORTUNATELY, THE DISCO SUCKS MOVEMENT WAS SO STRONG BY THEN THAT NO DISCO BAND COULD SURVIVE. ONE OF THEIR VERY BEST ALBUMS, FOR SURE.
disco al
R13 Hollywood Forever!
All of Chic's songs are classic. It can't get any better. The sound is great still. When I was young my mom broke my radio because I played their songs over and over.
Not bad, sounds like an Anti- "Disco Sucks" song.
Nile and Bernard were rebels! This sound just penetrates all boundaries! My hats off to them!
Can't stop listening to this. I must be a rebel now...
Take me back to the summer of 1980.
76grandprix. All the way back..... where only the BEST music was made!! "Nile Ridgers & Bernard Edwards so underrated, two. gifted artists❤
@Honey Boo U ain't lying! 😉
Man, with my brothers and sister's inthe Army stationed in West Germany I thought we would never get old. Nard, Niles, TT,Alpha man that was the shit and those was the days.
Ye look at tha times we are livin in Rebels Wit A Cause Chic do your thing
The song was the jam in 1980. I haven't heard it in so long. It still kicks butt.
Did you just say you were going to get a job, marry the girl ya knocked up
and pledge allegiance to the flag...or what?
Are You to dancing in trance to the base-riff in Rebels are we? even I heard this a million times,
even if I´m an old disco-chick from Sweden my whole body moves and I just have to follow.
Hallelujah Jesus we are all Your rebels. See You soon beloved master Jesus Sananda
@btinsley1 Yes

We as black people we are rebels always fight for our rights in this world remember thats we are not free im not giving blackman we have to fight for sisters all the time take care of them too sisters do the same too so we as a people are rebels we was taking from africa.
