Lyrics
[Verse]
I slipped through shadows quiet and lean
Took the drum from the village green
It felt so light it made me grin
But now the trouble's sinking in
[Chorus]
Stealing's easy
Oh so sly
But where to play it
Where to try
A hollow boom
A rebel cry
Will light the night and catch their eye
[Verse 2]
Behind the barn
Beneath the moon
I thought I'd start my secret tune
But every thump
It seemed to scream
A sound too bold for any dream
[Prechorus]
The drum it calls
It wants to sing
But freedom’s a heavy
Heavy thing
[Chorus]
Stealing's easy
Oh so sly
But where to play it
Where to try
A hollow boom
A rebel cry
Will light the night and catch their eye
[Bridge]
The wind it whispers
"Play it loud"
The stars they shiver
No room for proud
A stolen beat
A borrowed sound
Where can I play without the hounds?
