Mercenary Song 
 
by Steve Earle 
 
G Me and old Bill there we both come from Georgia 
Met Hank down in D New Mexico G 
We're G bound for Durango to join Pancho Villa 
We hear that he's D paying in G gold 
 
I guess a man's got to do what he's best at 
Ain't found nothing better so far 
Been called mercenaries and men with no country 
Just soldiers in search of a war 

We're C bound for the border We're G soldiers of fortune We'll D fight for no country But we'll G die for good pay C Under the flag of the G greenback dollar Or the peso down D Mexico G way
When this way is over, I might go back to Georgia And settle down quiet somewhere I'll most likely pack up and head south for Chile Hear tell there's some trouble down there REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
