Fortunes Lyrics


Some people live for money and fame
Some people live for playin' the game
The best wine and fine cigars
Private jets and fancy cars, oh yeah
And though it looks real good to me
Is it true reality
Dollars poppin' everywhere
Perfect skin and perfect hair, oh yeah
Take away the sparkle, glitter of the diamond ring
I'd give up all my fortunes for these simple things
To fill a heart with laughter that joy alone can bring
Just let me love you, that's enough for me
Oh, that's enough for me, yeah
When will we ever realize
There's a world that cries?
You've got to look outside yourself
Try to help somebody else, oh yeah
Take away the sparkle, glitter of the diamond ring

I'd give up all my fortunes for these simple things
To fill a heart with laughter that joy alone can bring
Just let me love you, that's enough for me
There's more than castles by the sea
Searchin' for treasure, oh
There's more than tryin' to be
A king or queen forever
You've got to look outside yourself
Try to help somebody else, oh yeah
Take away the sparkle, glitter of the diamond ring
I'd give up all my fortunes for these simple things
To fill a heart with laughter that joy alone can bring
Just let me love you, that's enough for me, that's enough for me
That's enough for me, that's enough for me, yeah

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Ol’ Dirty chose his moniker because there was no father to his bastard style. Young Fathers earn theirs by making something so fresh it doesn’t yet have a name. These are three fellas from Edinburgh who’ve been working together since they were 14, who have an elastic mind meld that mimics their fused sensibility of sound, who one day locked themselves in a dingy Scottish basement and came out with something that’d never been done — a fearless combination of beat, rap and song that smells not only of its dark and dank birthplace, but of discovery and of communion.
