Me and and old Bill there we both come from Georgia

Met Hank out in New Mexico

We're bound for Durango to join Pancho Villa

We hear that he's payin' in gold

Well I guess a man's got to do what he's best at

I ain't found nothin' better so far

Been called mercenaries and men with no country

We're just soldiers in search of a war

Chorus:

And we're bound for the border

We're soldiers of fortune

And we'll fight for no country but we'll die for good pay

Under the flag of the greenback dollar

Or the peso down Mexico way

When this war is over I might go back to Georgia

And settle down quiet some where

I'll most likely pack up and head south for Chile

Heard tell there's some trouble down there

Chorus:

And we're bound for the border

We're soldiers of fortune

And we'll fight for no country but we'll die for good pay

Under the flag of the greenback dollar

Or the peso down Mexico way

Yeah and we're bound for the border

We're soldiers of fortune

And we'll fight for no country but we'll die for good pay

Under the flag of the greenback dollar

Or the peso down Mexico way

Or the peso down Mexico way
