Aloe Blacc - Miss FortuneLyrics

Met a girl by the name of Miss Fortune Her daddy was a very rich man He told me, "Son, proceed with caution" If you wanna take my little girl's hand See money that I have might be good for some And down right danger to another And little Miss Fortune is sure to become Unfortunately just like her mother Hey he said, "Back when I was young and dumb, I had a choice" Before me and mama Fortune got wed, mmm Between riding in a bus or driving a new Rolls Royce yeah And I decided what I wanted was the bread, hey But the problem with having everything you want, mmm Is you never really know what you need, hey Now Miss Fortune is a spoilt little débutante And it's my fault so I suggest you take my heat So you met my little girl Miss Fortune And you know that I'm a very rich man I told you to precede with caution If you wanna take my little girl's hand See money that I have might be good for some And down right danger to another And little Miss Fortune is sure to become Unfortunately just like her mother, hey Well I thanked Miss Fortune's father Said I understand But you're trying to talk me down Yes you are Listen here, You ain't have to bother 'Cause I'm a real strong man I'm sure I can turn your daughter around See what she needs is someone who can take control Let the girl know her place and how to play her role Tell her all the money in the world cannot replace her soul Hell she needs is stop acting like twelve years old Well she put no ring on her finger Everything started to change And I looked at myself in the mirror You know I was looking strange She had me out every day spending money On all kinds of ridiculous things See I forget what life was all about Little Miss Fortune was to blame So I married this girl Miss Fortune Whose daddy was a very rich man And even though he told me take caution I still took his little girl's hand See money don't do everybody the same And is down right danger to a brother And little Miss Fortune surely became Unfortunately just like her mother, hey You gotta watch out for Miss Fortune Brothers you must proceed with caution Don't let lady luck pass you by, no And might as well give good grace a try All I wanted was a little dance with lady luck But she won't give me a chance What I could use is some good old grace But she refuses to show her face All I wanted was a little dance with lady luck But she won't give me a chance What I could use is some good old grace But she refuses to show her face Miss Fortune, Miss Fortune
