He doesn't talk much
But when he does, he sayin' somethin'
(Run-run ditty, run-run ditty)
He lives in the slums
'Cause his folks never had nothin'
(Run-run ditty, run-run ditty)
He's a rebel without a cause
He doesn't do what everyone does
And he makes my heart go run-run ditty
Makes my heart go run-run ditty
Makes my heart go run-run ditty, boom-boom
I see him every day
Hangin' 'round the neighborhood
(Run-run ditty, run-run ditty)
They say stay away, don't talk to him
'Cause he is no good
(Run-run ditty, run-run ditty)
He's a rebel without a cause
He doesn't do what everyone does
And he makes my heart go run-run ditty
Makes my heart go run-run ditty
Makes my heart go run-run ditty, boom-boom
How did he ever get in so much trouble?
(Sha da-da-da, sha da-da, da-da-da)
Why do the papers always mention his name?
(Sha da-da-da, sha da-da, da-da-da)
He's a rebel without a cause
He doesn't do what everyone does
And he makes my heart go run-run ditty
Makes my heart go run-run ditty
Makes my heart go run-run ditty, boom-boom
(Oh yeah) and he makes my heart go run-run ditty
(Oh yeah) makes my heart go run-run ditty
(Oh yeah) makes my heart go run-run ditty boom-boom
(Oh yeah) and he makes my heart go run-run ditty
(Oh yeah) makes my heart go run-run ditty
(Oh yeah) makes my heart go run-run ditty boom-boom
