Men of Good Fortune Sözleri

{Words & Music: Lou Reed}

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

While the poor just sit there and cry

And me ... ah ...

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't 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

Men of poor beginnings

Men of good fortune

Men of poor beginnings

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

But look at the Fords, hey didn't they start that way

Anyway ... ha ...

It makes no difference to me

Men of good fortune

Men of poor beginnings [Repeat to Fade]
