Child Of Fortune Lyrics

Don't think I'm a child of sorrow

Just because I have no home

I'll know better times tomorrow

Than in all the years I've known

And when you see the smile upon my face

You'll know it's true

Give me time (a little time)

And I'll be fine when I'm a child of fortune

Fortune, fortune, when I'm a child of fortune

Don't think I'm a child of sorrow

Give me time to dry my tears

And I'll find a laugh to borrow

That will echo through the years

And when you see me fine and dandy

Just a friend to man

You'll understand (you'll understand)

That any man can be a child of fortune

Fortune, fortune, when I'm a child of fortune

They say that happiness will come

To anyone who waits

And soon that time will come for me

It never is too late

Don't think I'm a child of sorrow

Give me time to change my plight

And I'll gather more in darkness

More than most men find in light

And when the time has come for me

Babe, I'll come back for you

Give me time, a little time

And I'll be fine when I'm a child of fortune

Fortune, fortune, when I'm a child of fortune
