Miss Fortune |
| Met a girl by the name of Miss Fortune |
| Her daddy was a very rich man |
| He told me, «Son, proceed with caution» |
| If you wanna take my little girl’s hand |
| See money that I have might be good for some |
| And down right danger to another |
| And little Miss Fortune is sure to become |
| Unfortunately just like her mother |
| Hey he said, «Back when I was young and dumb, I had a choice» |
| Before me and mama Fortune got wed, mmm |
| Between riding in a bus or driving a new Rolls Royce yeah |
| And I decided what I wanted was the bread, hey |
| But the problem with having everything you want, mmm |
| Is you never really know what you need, hey |
| Now Miss Fortune is a spoiled little debutante |
| And it’s my fault so I suggest you take my heed |
| So you met my little girl Miss Fortune |
| And you know that I’m a very rich man |
| I told you to precede with caution |
| If you wanna take my little girl’s hand |
| Well I thanked Miss Fortune’s father |
| Said I understand |
| But you’re trying to talk me down |
| Yes you are |
| Listen here |
| You ain’t have to bother |
| Cause I’m a real strong man |
| I’m sure I can turn your daughter around |
| See what she needs is someone who can take control |
| Let the girl know her place and how to play her role |
| Tell her all the money in the world cannot replace her soul |
| Hell she needs is stop acting like twelve years old |
| Well she put the ring on her finger |
| Everything started to change |
| And I looked at myself in the mirror |
| You know I was looking strange |
| She had me out every day spending money |
| On all kinds of ridiculous things |
| See I forget what life was all about |
| Little Miss Fortune was to blame |
| So I married this girl Miss Fortune |
| Whose daddy was a very rich man |
| And even though he told me take caution |
| I still took his little girl’s hand |
| See money don’t do everybody the same |
| And it’s down right danger to a brother |
| And little Miss Fortune surely became |
| Unfortunately just like her mother, hey |
| You gotta watch out for Miss Fortune |
| Brothers you must proceed with caution |
| Don’t let lady luck pass you by, no |
| And might as well give good grace a try |
| All I wanted was a little dance with lady luck |
| But she won’t give me a chance |
| What I could use is some good old grace |
| But she refuses to show her face |
| Miss Fortune, Miss Fortune |
