Roland The Headless Thompson Gunner (2007 Remastered Version) - Warren Zevon[00:00:00]

Written by：David Lindell[00:00:00]

Roland was a warrior from the land of the midnight Sun[00:00:10]

With a Thompson gun for hire fighting to be done[00:00:15]

The deal was made in Denmark on a dark and stormy day[00:00:21]

So he set out for Biafra to join the bloody fray[00:00:27]

Through sixty six and seven they fought the Congo war[00:00:35]

With their fingers on their triggers knee deep in gore[00:00:41]

For days and nights they battled the Bantu to their knees[00:00:47]

They killed to earn their living and to help out the Congolese[00:00:52]

Roland the Thompson gunner[00:01:00]

Roland the Thompson gunner[00:01:06]

His comrades fought beside him Van Owen and the rest[00:01:13]

But of all the Thompson gunners Roland was the best[00:01:19]

So the CIA decided they wanted Roland dead[00:01:25]

That son of a b**ch Van Owen blew off Roland's head[00:01:31]

Roland the headless Thompson gunner[00:01:39]

Norway's bravest son[00:01:45]

They can still see his headless body stalking through the night[00:01:50]

In the muzzle flash of Roland's Thompson gun[00:01:57]

In the muzzle flash of Roland's Thompson gun[00:02:02]

Roland searched the continent for the man who'd done him in[00:02:16]

He found him in Mombassa in a barroom drinking gin[00:02:21]

Roland aimed his Thompson gun he didn't say a word[00:02:27]

But he blew Van Owen's body from there to Johannesburg[00:02:33]

Roland the headless Thompson gunner[00:02:41]

Roland the headless Thompson gunner[00:02:47]

Roland the headless Thompson gunner[00:02:53]

Thompson gunner[00:02:57]

Roland the headless Thompson gunner[00:02:59]

The eternal Thompson gunner[00:03:06]

Still wandering through the night[00:03:09]

Now it's ten years later but he still keeps up the fight[00:03:12]

In Ireland in Lebanon in Palestine and Berkeley[00:03:19]

Patty Hearst heard the burst of Roland's[00:03:26]

Thompson gun and bought it[00:03:30]
