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 byword

Fortuosity, 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 Fortuosity


Fortuosity, that's me own word
Fortuosity, me never feel alone word
`Round the corner, under a tree

Good fortune's waitin', just wait and see

Fortuosity, lucky chances

Fortuitious little happy happen-stances
I keep smilin', 'cause my philosophy
Is do your best and leave the rest to Fortuosity


I keep smilin', 'cause my philosophy
Is do your best and leave the rest to Fortuosit
