FASTBALL LYRICS - Mercenary Girl

"Mercenary Girl"



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 you're eyes look soft and kind

And this civil war keeps ragin' in my mind

Oh Mercenary Girl

Oh Mercenary Girl

Oh Mercenary Girl

Oh Mercenary Girl
