Abney Park - Hired Gun Lyrics

He ain't here for your revolution
He's only here for gold
And he'll take his pay
On any day
From any army in the fold

He didn't come 'cause he loves your company
Didn't come 'cause shared your views
He didn't come from a common vision
He's not following your muse

He won't stick by you through thick and thin
He doesn't have your back
And if the funds run short that bastard
Won't take any flack

If you think that you can trust him
If you think he can win the war
Try mentioning that there's no pay
And he'll soon be out the door

[Chorus]
He's a hired gun
Takes his money and runs
This wars not his scene
He's just a killing machine
He's a hired gun
Takes his money and runs
This war's not his scene
He's just a killing machine
He'll only do what he finds easiest
Easiest to still get paid
And if some one is bleeding tired
They won't get in his way

He won't lift a hand to help you
Not until he can see the cash
He don't care if your gonna win or lose
If it won't affect his stash

If he can't get paid fighting for your cause
He's not stickin' to your side
He'll take your gear throw it on his horse
And sell it to the other side

He doesn't care if your family's starved
Doesn't care if your family's died
If he sees there a buck to make
There'll be a sparkle in his eye

[Chorus]
He's a hired gun
Takes his money and runs
This wars not his scene
He's just a killing machine
He's a hired gun
Takes his money and runs
This wars not his scene
He's just a killing machine
