Fortune Favors
Don't you call me a kid I'm just like you Eating this crow With a silver spoon So get back in line For your pot 'o gold 'Cause fortune favors the old Fortune favors the old
Throw your things in the car We've a long drive ahead 'Why don't we take it easy And stay here instead?' That's not the American way Or so I'm told 'Cause fortune favors the bold Fortune favors the bold
And I don't have a fortune I don't have a dime But I'm doing my best In the heart of my prime If we both have a penny And a story to tell Let's rub them together And get out of this hell
Hit a note here and there The crowd goes wild You're both proud and bitter 'She's just a child' There's a million more notes That are left unsung But fortune favors the young Fortune favors the young
And I don't have a fortune Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I don't have a dime But I'm doing my best In the heart of my prime If we both have a penny And a story to tell Let's rub them together And get out of this hell
It's a hard knock life But you'd do it again For the ones that you love For the folks in the stands If there's one thing I've learned After we begun Fortune favors the ones
Fortune favors the ones We look up to and hold to impossible standards (Fortune favors the ones) Like doctors and lawyers, inventors, investors, and presidents (Fortune favors the ones) But I'm not the one (Favors the ones) My song isn't sung (Favors the ones) I've just now begun to shout it out loud
But what of the ones Who are stuck in life? What of their plight? Their sacrifice? So what do I tell My reflection now As the sun sets over the bow? Fortune favors us now.
