Soldier of Fortune Songtext
von John Paul Young

Before the jungle closes in
A letter to America
The candles are a cocoa hue
Inside the room of missing men
One hundred mercenary souls
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
We are the army of the night
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah

One foot in front of the other, babe
One baby step, I, I, I, I
Feel there′s soldier of fortune
Marching inside of me


We drink our gin in Mandalay
Afraid of what we have become
This is the moment of intrigue
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
A tiger dreaming of his pray
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
This is the edge of history
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah

One foot in front of the other, babe
One baby step, I, I, I, I
Feel there's soldier of fortune
Marching inside of me

One foot in front of the other, babe
One baby step, I, I, I, I
Feel there′s soldier of fortune
Marching inside of me

One foot in front of the other, babe
One baby step, I, I, I, I
Feel there's soldier of fortune
Marching inside of me, yeah

One foot in front of the other, babe
One baby step, I, I, I, I
Feel there's soldier of fortune
Marching inside of me
