Missionary Man

Missionary Man - Dave Stewart/Annie Lennox

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

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

Backing 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 following me

He said "stop what you're doing "

"Get down upon your knees "

"I've got a message for you that you better believe "

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

Don't mess with a missionary man

Missionary man missionary man

Missionary man

Don't mess with a missionary man

Missionary man missionary man

Missionary man

Don't mess with a missionary man

Don't mess with a missionary man

Don't mess with a missionary man
