Men of good fortune, often cause empires to fall While men of poor beginnings, often can't do anything at all The rich son waits for his father to die The poor just drink and cry And me I just don't care at all Men of good fortune, very often can't do a thing While men of poor beginnings, often can do anything At heart they try to act like a man Handle things the best way they can They have no rich daddy to fall back on Men of good fortune, often cause empires to fall While men of poor beginnings, often can't do anything at all It takes money to make money they say Look at the Fords, but didn't they start that way Anyway, it makes no difference to me Men of good fortune, often wish that they could die While men of poor beginnings want what they have And to get it they'll die All those great things that live has to give They wanna have money and live But me, I just don't care at all Men of good fortune Men of poor beginnings
