(Joe Perry)
No one knows just how I feel tonight
I can't get though the day without a fight
I don't expect a thing that I don't take
Hand to hand, to me it's make or break

Soldier of fortune
Soldier of fortune
{I'm a} soldier of fortune
Soldier of fortune

Day to day, I start from going in
At times I feel alone, I just can't win
What I want, I take....it ain't no sin
The strong survive, the weak....they never learn

Soldier of fortune
Soldier of fortune
{I'm a} soldier of fortune
Soldier of fortune

They do drugs, they do speed
I seen it all, it ain't no dream
I seen the world that they tear apart
One by one, they hit the dark {the dark}

Soldier of fortune
Soldier of fortune
{I'm a} soldier of fortune
Soldier of fortune
Show me your way

Soldier of fortune
Soldier of fortune
{I'm a} soldier of fortune
{I'm a} soldier of fortune
