-- this isn't exactly right but close --
[F] Me and old Bill there we both come from Georgia
Met Hank down in [G] New Mexico [F]
We're [F] bound for Durango to join Pancho Villa
We hear that he's [G] paying in [F] gold
I guess a man's got to do what he's best at
Ain't found nothing better so far
Been called mercenaries and men with no country
Just soldiers in search of a war
CHORUS
We're [F] bound for the border
We're [F] soldiers of fortune
We'll [G] fight for no country
But we'll [F] die for good pay
[F] Under the flag of the [F] greenback dollar
Or the peso down [G] Mexico [F] way
When this way is over, I might go back to Georgia
And settle down quiet somewhere
I'll most likely pack up and head south for Chile
Hear tell there's some trouble down there
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
