Tommy Steele — Fortuosity lyrics

Lyrics

Well now, ain’t this an elegant neighborhood
All the residents dressed so fine
One day off the boat am I with a job that’s nearly mine
'Tis a job with an elegant millionaire and his elegant family
Today I move from immigrant to high society
Now you may call that luck, and you may call it fortune
But me, meself, I call it…
Fortuosity, that’s me by-word
Fortuosity, that’s me twinkle in the eye word
Sometimes castles fall to the ground
But that’s where four leaf clovers are found
Fortuosity, lucky chances
Fortuitious little happy happen-stances
I don’t worry 'cause everywhere I see
That every bit of life is lit by Fotuosity
Fortuosity, that’s me own word
Fortuosity, me never feel alone word
'Round a corner, under a tree
Good fortune’s waiting, just wait and see!
Fortuosity, lucky chances
Fortuitious little happy happen-stances
I keep smiling 'cause my philosophy
Is do your best and leave the rest to
Fortuosity!
