Lyrics Son of a Gun (Live At the Marquee 23/4/1991) - The La's
If
you
want
I'll
sell
you
a
life
story
About
a
man
who's
at
loggerheads
With
his
past
all
the
time
He's
alive
and
living
in
purgatory
All
he's
doing
is
rooming
in
hotels
And
scooping
up
lots
of
wine
There
was
once
a
boy
of
life
Who
lived
upon
a
knife
He
took
his
share
of
everywhere
But
he
never
took
a
wife...
He
was
born
to
live
like
a
mercenary
Well
personally
I
think
that's
fine
If
you're
in
the
right
mind
He
was
burned
by
the
twentieth
century
Now
he's
doing
time
In
the
back
of
his
mind
He
can
hear
them
outside
Better
run,
rabbit
run
Run
into
the
sun
Kick
your
heels
in
the
killing
fields
Run
rabbit
run
You're
a
son
of
a
gun
He
was
born
to
live
like
a
mercenary
Well
personally
I
think
that's
fine
If
you're
in
the
right
mind
