IT WASN’T ME

But I keep hoping

 ()())(())())((()()

 

The winner of the lottery

Certainly wasn’t me!

I guess the fact that being rich

Is something I won’t see.

 

I’ll never have the money

To live my life at ease,

Or come and go and do the things

As often as I’d please.

 

Money isn’t everything

And some ego it can burst;

But it surely comes ahead of what

Ever it is that’s first.
