[Intro]

[Verse 1]
C F C
On a hot summer's evenin' in a bar room in Ovambo
G
I was talking to a heavy with experience by the heaps
C F C
And as I sat there listning to the stories of his contacts
G C
I was stariing at him wide-eyes, as he quitely speaks
[Verse 2]
C F C
He said, "Son, I've made a life out of hunting' SWAPO turkeys
G
and knowin' what the odds are I know where the danger lies
C F C G
If you don't mind me sayin', I know more you can think of
C G C
If you buy me another whiskey I'll give you some advice"
[Verse 3]
C F C
So I ordered him a another and he drank it with one swallow
G
He put his fingers on his chest, on the scars of his fights
C F C
And his face was very serious, as he put his empty glass gown
G C
"You're gonna play the game, boy, you better learn to play it right"
[Chorus]
C F C
You've got to know when to hit them, know when you beat them
G
Stay alive to walk away and know where to run
C F C
You'll never count your kills while waiting in an ambush
G C
There'll be time enough for countin' when the shooting's done
[Verse 5] - Key Change
D G D
Ev'ry hand should know that the secret to survival
A
is stinking like the enemy and beat them to the draw
D G D
Better wake up Buddy, dont think like a loser
A
SWAPO'll take your hide off, and nail it to the floor
[Verse 6]
D
When he'd finished speakin', he turned back to the barman
A D A
swigged down a double round, staggered into the night
D G D
And the heavy died of alchohol, in the darkness of Ovambo
A D
Never warned me about the Whisky, but he taught me how to fight
[Chorus]
D G D
You've got to know when to hit them, know when you beat them
A
Stay alive to walk away and know where to run
D G D
You'll never count your kills while waiting in an ambush
A D
There'll be time enough for countin' when the shooting's done
[Outro]
D G D
You've got to know when to hit them, know when you beat them
A
Stay alive to walk away and know where to run
D G D
You'll never count your kills while waiting in an ambush
A D
There'll be time enough for countin' when the shooting's done
| D | D G | D G | D A |
