Fortune Glory by Zac Jr Lyrics

It's been a few days
It's been a long time
And I'm already running dry
It's hard to believe
It's hard to conceive
That eventually it'll work out fine

I've run out of cash
It's true that I'm strapped
I watch my bank ride the water line
I've given up holding out hope that I'll work
Cause I've lost myself for good this time

This song isn't going to bring me that fortune and glory
I stopped chasing that pot of gold
A long, long time ago

I can't understand why my writing's so bland
And my words are running on
My melody's simple, but not like the others
Soon the song'll be done, and even sooner forgotten
This song isn't going to bring me that fortune and glory
I stopped chasing that pot of gold
A long, long time ago

I've fixed it a bit, I've rewritten it
The hook hooks them in for fun
But in the right way that they expect to be
Not hooked in the way that it used to be done

Cause this song isn't going to bring me that fortune and glory
I stopped chasing that pot of gold
A long, long time ago
