Thoughts On Wealth
As I fret o’er finances
I sometimes daydream ‘bout the chances
Credit companies would let me be
If only I win the lottery
No more cares about a bill
No more worries ‘bout gettin’ ill
House and boat in the country
If only I win the lottery
Daughter on dope in a haze
Wife is lonely just a faze
Son would end up in juvie
If I would win the lottery
I have my daughter and my son
I have my wife I have my fun
I have a home and poetry
I have enough ‘til eternity
I will keep on paying bills
Thoughts of wealth just give me chills
I know I’m blessed I know I’m free
And I sure don’t need that lottery
