Missionary Man (2018 Remastered) Lyrics - 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...]
