Mercenary Lyrics

MERCENARY

Well, I"m a stranger in this jungleland
Le Crazy Americain

The natives speak my name in fear

But with my semi-automatic, man, they know I"m here

Mercenary, get your gun (load "em up)

Mercenary

Well, I"ll see you in a week

Down in Costa Rica

Well, I"m a soldier of fortune if the price is right

In brightest day, in blackest night

The rebels have my sentiment

But, I"m being paid by the government
Mercenary, get your gun (only 21 - poor boy)

Mercenary

Well, I"ll see you in a week

Down in Costa Rica

I"m just outside the rebel camp

The air is thick, the ground is damp

One false move could mean my life

Well, it"s a dirty job, but the money"s nice
Mercenary

Mercenary

See you in a week

Down in Costa Rica

See you in a week

Down in Costa Rica

See you in a week

Down in Costa Rica
