Rebel Yell Lyrics

Last night a little dancer came dancin' to my door

In the midnight hour she cried- "more, more,...

   The song is about a heroin addicted girl that comes to him while high. She dances into his life with an addiction. He falls for her and he does whatever he can to feed her addiction. It’s very sad if you think about it.

   This song is totally about sex. Billy Idol had a sexual encounter with a beautiful woman, so he had a very sexual attraction to her. And, it's about Billy Idol lusting over the fact that the woman is gorgeous that he just wants to make love to her.

   Its about drugs, maybe bourbon, maybe his little angel is PCP. After all, he'd sell his soul for her.

   It's a cover. The original artist was Billy Idol. But, It's about sex, plain and simple.

    It is I'm mean "but when I'm tired and lonely she gives me head" that's definitely about sex.

    yes it does sound like sex but is it really in bvb's nature to write songs about that? I could be wrong but that's my opinion.

    Rebel yell was a battle cry used by Confederate soldiers during the American Civil War. the yell as a high-pitched "Wa-woo-woohoo, wa-woo woohoo. or more more more was the cry .the guitar solos should mimic the cry s. or is it a song i should write. think Billy Idol with Rebel Yell missed a chance there, still a good song.
