Lyrics Mystery man - Wishbone Ash

Mystery man

Keep your distance, you’ll never know how it feels
I’ve been to places that took my mind away from me
Your aiming questions opens the wound that just won’t heal
I’m just a man that Uncle Sam gave the dark side of the deal
So much for the Constitution and the home of the free
Fighting for a nation that’s brought me to my knees
Wherever I go, people wanna know
Who’s that mystery man?
I stand all alone, my name carved in stone
I’m the mystery man
Out in the jungle, I didn’t know then what I know now
Out in the jungle, I faced the danger next to me
Deep in the trenches I could have died, it was understood
I couldn’t cry, too afraid to show the fear
Wherever I go, people wanna know
Who’s that mystery man?
I stand all alone, my name carved in stone
I’m the mystery man
Wherever I go, people wanna know
Who’s that mystery man?
I’m living the pain and stuck with that name
The mystery man
