The Fruits of Capitalism

Men of Good Fortune

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 life 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
