Here's another verse to Fortune:

FORTUNE

Once I had a fortune. I put it in my trunk.
I lost it all a-gambling one night when I got drunk.

Fortune I had it
Fortune I lost it
Fortune I lost it
One night when I got drunk.

I'm packing up my suitcase and now I'll say goodbye
I'm gonna live a gambling man until the day I die.

Fortune I had it, etc.
