Black sheep and a renegade    Hot feet in the cool of the shade    The street jungle and the tough childhoods    Examinations done no good    Got crow bars and hot wired cars    Sneak thieves and cheap cigars    No rebellion, not today    I get my kicks in my own way, right OK       Just keep on breakin’ the rules   C’mon get ready to rule    Just keep on breakin’ the rules    C’mon get ready to rule       Tough breaks in the neighbourhood   A hard case who’s up to no good    Livin’ like trash, a society rash    Ready to break and ready to dash    A bad deal and a real rough ride    Ain’t doin’ time on the other side    No rebellion, not today    I get my kicks in my own way, right OK       Just keep on breakin’ the rules   C’mon get ready to rule    Just keep on breakin’ the rules    C’mon get ready to rule    Tough breaks       They got the regulation ties, regulation shoes   Those regulation fools with their regulation rules   Just keep on breakin’ the rules   C’mon get ready to rule    Just keep on breakin’ the rules    C’mon get ready to rule    Just keep on breakin’ the rules, breakin’ the rules    Get ready    You just keep on breakin’ the rules    C’mon get ready, get ready, get ready    Ready to rule    Take off your ties and your regulation shoes    You’re nothing but a bunch of regulation fools, yeah    And your damn regulation rules    I’m gonna do things my own way, everyday, everyday, everyday    In every way, I ain’t gonna pay no attention to your rules
