Little Feat - Mercenary Territory Lyrics
music by Lowell George, Richie Hayward-- lyrics by Lowell GeorgeIs it the lies?Is it the style?It's a mercenary territoryI wish you knew the storyI've been out here so long dreamin up songsI'm temporarily qualmless and sinkingI've did my time in that rodeoIt's been so long and I've got nothing to showWell I'm so plain locoFool that I am I'd do it all over againIs it the style?Is it the lies?Is it the days into nightsOr the "I'm sorry"s into fightsNow some kind of man, he can't do anything wrongIf I see him I'll tell him you're waiting'Cause I'm devoted for sure but my days are a blurWell your nights turn into my morningsWell I did my time in that rodeoFool that I am I'd do it all over againIs it love keeps you waiting so longMakes you say I'll see you aroundThe forces that be, they just don't seeWhile your nights turn into my morningsIs it the style?Is it the lies?Is it the days into nightsOr the "I'm sorrys" into fights
