Searching for gold on another man's highway
Fixing the price of another day's pay
Stalking the streets like a hired assassin
Changing your side like the night turns to day
Do you ever care who's right or wrong
Are you just a hired hand who fights and feels no pain

Soldier of fortune dealer in life
Have you got no conscience were's your pride
Mercenary fighter out on the line
Your just a time bomb ticking inside

Leading the charge under cover of darkness
Blowing bridges in some South American state
Waiting for news of a new revolution
Catching a plane for some god forsaken place
Do you ever care who's right or wrong
Are you just a hired hand who fights and feels no pain

Soldier of fortune dealer in life
Have you got no conscience were's your pride
Mercenary fighter out on the line
Your just a time bomb ticking inside

Surviving the heat in a sweltering jungle
Freezing to death at the edge of the world
Squeezing your finger so tight on the trigger
With the keenest of eyes and the deadliest nerve
Do you ever care who's right or wrong
Do you ever care who's weak or strong
Do you ever care who's right or wrong
Are you just a hired hand who fights and feels no pain

Soldier of fortune dealer in life
Have you got no conscience were's your pride
Mercenary fighter out on the line
Your just a time bomb ticking inside
