fortunate son歌詞

《Fortunate Son》的詞曲作者是Paul Simon。以下是這首歌的歌詞：

Verse 1:

I'm a fortunate son

I'm a fortunate man

Got all I can want

And more than I can use

Chorus:

But there comes a time

When fortune runs out

And you're left alone

With all your misery

Verse 2:

The luck that you've been given

Can burn you like a branding iron

And there's no escape

Once they've got your number

(Chorus)

Verse 3:

So you better make your peace

With the world you're born in

Or you'll be left outside

When they lock the golden door

(Chorus)

Bridge:

You've got to fight for your joy

And your happiness is a choice

You can't just let it come

And then expect to thrive

(Chorus x2)

Outro:

I'm a fortunate son

But I'm a poor man still

Got all I can want

But I can't hold on to what I've had.
