Текст песни Missionary Man, Eurythmics

Well I was born an original sinner.
I was borne from original sin.
And if I had a dollar bill
For all the things I ve done
There d be a mountain of money
Piled up to my chin...

My mother told me good
My mother told me strong.
She said "be true to yourself
And you can t go wrong."
"But there s just one thing
That you must understand."
"You can fool with your brother -
But don t mess with a missionary man."

Don t mess with a missionary man.
Don t mess with a missionary man.

Well the missionary man
He s got God on his side.
He s got the saints and apostles
Backin up from behind.
Black eyed looks from those Bible books.
He s a man with a mission
Got a serious mind.
There was a woman in the jungle
And a monkey on a tree.
The missionary man he was followin me.
He said "stop what you re doing."
"Get down upon your knees."
"I ve got a message for you that you better believe."

(Chorus repeats...)
