Mercenary Girl

Intro    Oh Mexico all the time Dreamin’ all about Acapulco and a sweet thing on my mind            Mogadishu sunrise low above the sea All of those lawyers in California won’t bring her back to me               Back to me back to me    Oh Mercenary Girl   Of all the lowdown places in the world                   To be stuck inside of a phone booth    Hangin’ on the end of a line             While this civil war keeps ragin’ in my mind                      Oh Mary Mary I think you’re fine ’Cause you can mix a margarita from a bottle of turpentine             Just between noon and midnight that’s when the battle rages on              Mama I just gotta make one more call and I’ll be here with you all   night long All night long all night long   Oh Mercenary Girl   Of all the lowdown places in the world                   To be livin’ in another city          Comin’ from another time          I know it’s a cold cruel world But your eyes look soft and kind                 And this civil war keeps ragin’ in my mind           Oh Mercenary Girl... )
