I know a girl who goes by the freeway
|
I know someone who's angry at what they say
|
I know a girl who thinks the mirrors nice
|
Don't get nothing less you pay the price
|
|
This ain't no history Mercenary Man
|
This ain't no election, no folk singers here
|
|
Yes I learnt way back to bite my tongue
|
Can't do nothing but to have fun
|
i learned to close my mouth
|
Don't put up a fight, but to shout for......
|
|
This ain't no history Mercenary man
|
Yeah this ain't no party
|
Cos the only way to the way I learned way back
|
Give the dog a bone
|
I learned to wait alone, right?
|
|
Yeah I had a friend who drank tooo much
|
I had a friend who was involved in such and such
|
He lost his wife, his family too
|
But he's got something on you...
|
|
This ain't no history Mercenary Man
|
This ain't no election no folk singers here
|
|
And I learned the way to calm my fears
|
Yeah I found a wat to sleep at night
|
Don't think about the bright city lights
|
|
Yes I had a friend who drank too much
|
He was involved in such and such and such
|
Lost his family, lost his wife
|
Yeah but the man's still got his life
|
|
This ain't no history no mercenary man
|
This ain't no election, no folk singers here
|
I have to run now, to get another beer
|
All my friends in the dead of night
|
I ain't never gonna put up a fight.
