Don't Tread On Me Lyrics

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

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 ground 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
[Incomprehensible]
And I know you [Incomprehensible]
All I want is you

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 lay yourself on 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 dare forget your history
Don't you tread on me

Lyrics provided by LyricsEver.com
Damn Yankees was an American hard rock supergroup, well known for the single High Enough, formed in 1985, consisting of Jack Blades (Night Ranger), Tommy Shaw (Styx), Ted Nugent and drummer Michael Cartellone. Presumably inspired by the musical of the same name, Nugent once also explained that he coined the name because whenever someone asked him how he and Tommy Shaw would sound playing together, he would always reply by saying they would sound like "a bunch of damn Yankees." With Tommy Shaw from Alabama, Jack Blades from California, Mike Cartellone from New York, and Ted Nugent from Michigan, it did seem as if the band represented all four corners of the nation.
