Don't Tread on Me Lyrics - Damn Yankees
Written by Tommy Shaw, Jack Blades, Ted Nugent
Freedom rider
On a midnight cruise
On my way
I got nothing to lose
Sister mercy
Gonna take my hand
Lead me over
To the promised land
But you'd better not
Set your sights on me
'Cause it just might spoil your victory
Chorus:
Don't you dare
Don't you tread on me
Don't you tread on me
Don't you try
And make some fool of me
Don't you tread on me
We walked the gound
Of ancient ones
Lit the fire
With a rising sun
You and me
We got a full on rage
Won't get fooled
No I won't be caged
Make love not war
Was you claim to fame
Now you're takin' me down
Well I won't be tamed
Don't you dare
Don't you tread on me
Don't you tread on me
Don't you try
And make some fool of me
Don't you tread on me
You better turn and walk away
(Don't tread on me)
I'd like to love another day
Yeah and I know you need to hear me say
All I want is you
After Guitar Solo:
Don't you dare
Don't you tread on me
Don't you tread on me
Don't you try
And make some fool of me
Don't you tread on
Don't you dare
Don't you tread on me
Don't you tread on me
Don't you try
And make us enemies
Don't you tread on
Don't you dare
Don't you tread on me
Don't you tread on me
Don't you dare forget your history
Don't you tread on me
Freedom rider
On a midnight cruise
On my way
I got nothing to lose
Sister mercy
Gonna take my hand
Lead me over
To the promised land
But you'd better not
Set your sights on me
'Cause it just might spoil your victory
Chorus:
Don't you dare
Don't you tread on me
Don't you tread on me
Don't you try
And make some fool of me
Don't you tread on me
We walked the gound
Of ancient ones
Lit the fire
With a rising sun
You and me
We got a full on rage
Won't get fooled
No I won't be caged
Make love not war
Was you claim to fame
Now you're takin' me down
Well I won't be tamed
Don't you dare
Don't you tread on me
Don't you tread on me
Don't you try
And make some fool of me
Don't you tread on me
You better turn and walk away
(Don't tread on me)
I'd like to love another day
Yeah and I know you need to hear me say
All I want is you
After Guitar Solo:
Don't you dare
Don't you tread on me
Don't you tread on me
Don't you try
And make some fool of me
Don't you tread on
Don't you dare
Don't you tread on me
Don't you tread on me
Don't you try
And make us enemies
Don't you tread on
Don't you dare
Don't you tread on me
Don't you tread on me
Don't you dare forget your history
Don't you tread on me
