AMERICA - NO FORTUNE lyrics

rate me

Written by Gerry Beckley, ©1979

Found on Silent Letter.

We were dancin' in the middle

We could hardly hold our heads up

I think we had too much to drink

I remember wondering what they'd think

Da, da, da, da, da, da, da

We were thinkin' 'bout the future

We were trying not to laugh

Then you made me cry instead

I remember wishing I was dead

Da, da, da, da, da, da, da

No fortune pays for wounds like these

It's been too long a time now please

Just say you will, we can call it a day

It's not as though we ain't sinned

It's just a game we all play

There was nothing to win

Well I'm coming home lady

I'm your homecoming man

Trying hard to stand the rain

Gettin' back on my feet again

Da, da, da, da, da, da, da

No fortune pays for wounds like these

It's been too long a time now please

Just say you will, we can call it a day

It's not as though we ain't sinned

It's just a game we all play

There was nothing to win

Da, da, da, da, da, da, da

No fortune pays for wounds like these

It's been too long a time now please

Just say you will, we can call it a day

It's not as though we ain't sinned

It's just a game we all play

There was nothing to win

Da, da, da, da, da, da, da

Da, da, da, da, da, da, da

Da, da, da, da, da, da, da

Da, da, da, da, da, da, da
