Song title: John Wesley Harding - Miss Fortune

Edit By: 216.73.217.165

I was born with a coathanger in my mouth
Oh yeah, and I was dumped down south
I was found by the richest man in the world
Oh yeah, who bought me up as a girl
My sheets are satin but my minds a mess
But there are worse things I confess
Than drinking tea in a pretty dress
And Im here to tell you that its not all bad
Count your blessings and maybe youll be glad

When he died, I inherited his wealth
Oh yeah and I revealed my self
I was snubbed by the friends hed never had
Oh yeah, who sided with my dad
All my riches are beyond control
But its the same old rigmarole
They say Ive lost my very soul
Maybe I have
But Im here to tell you that its not all bad
Count your blessings and maybe youll be glad

And as I grew so did my fame
So I gave it up and changed my name
Its catch as catch can and
Youll never know who I am

When I died, I hoped to hear the angels song
Oh yeah, but was I wrong
They threw me back there in that lane
Oh yeah and they said start again
So when youre turning out the bedside light
Consider me and my wretched plight
Looks like Im gonna have to get it right this time
But Im here to tell you that its not all bad
Count your blessings and maybe
Youll be glad
