I'm 3000 miles from home I'm so tired and I'm all alone
It's a good thing that I'm single wish I could swing all night long
But I got a job with a price on my head so I must get away
It's one hell of a lifestyle but then it brings in the pay
Nowhere to hang my gun
No time to say hello
And every mother's son
He wants to see you swing
I take the job again
And you will never know
I dread the moment when
The telephone will ring
Danger money danger money
Danger money danger money danger money
I got a Luger strapped to my thigh I got a Magnum as well
I got my cold eyes for comfort I can be hotter than hell
I'm a professional man I could see you in seconds flat
I can show you no mercy well they don't pay me for that
A fine political mess
And someone's got to go
Just leave name time and address
In plain sealed envelope
I get out just in time
And no one tells the tale
And all that's left is mine
But how do you feel
Danger money danger money danger money
I am a soldier of fortune I've got the will to survive
But when the brass tacks are down I'm lucky to be alive
When I think back on my past well I'd do the same thing again
I got a bug now for the danger just take the money and run
I start this whole machine
And when the bullets fly
I'm nowhere to be seen
You're too afraid to die
It's on the news tonight
They wonder who you are
I'm on another flight
But you're going nowhere
