Missionary Man Lyrics By Eurythmics

    well i was born an original sinner
    i was born 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 hey

    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

    vrese
    oh 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 a message for you that you better believe

    4
    oh yeah hey hey oh
    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
