Often it's for the fun
The job can be so messy
Be he always get them done
He can zoom on a target
That's ready to expire
When it's murder 1,
This gun's for hire

Yea

There's a G-man in the city
Spinning some Russian roulet
He lives on easy
By playing hard to get
When the fog horn blows
And the air waves catch a fire
You'll have to know
This gun's for hire

This gun's for hire
This gun's for hire
This gun's for hire

Hmmmm yea

This gun's for hire...
