Mercenary Song  Steve Earle

[G]me and Bill there we both come from Georgia
[G]met Hank out in [C]New Mexic[G]o
[G]we're bound for Durango to join Pancho Villa
[G]we hear that he's [C]paying in [G]gold
[G]I guess a man's got to do what he's best at
[G]ain't found nothin' [C]better so [G]far
[G]been called mercenaries and men with no country
[G]just soldiers in [C]search of a [G]war
and we're [C]bound for the border
we're [G]soldiers of fortune
we [D]fight for no country
but we'll [C]die for good [G]pay
[C]under the flag of the [G]greenback dollar
or the [G]peso down [D]Mexico [G]way
when this war is over might go back to Georgia
and settle down quiet somewhere
I'll most likely pack up and head south for Chile
heard tell there's some trouble down there
