Full Lyrics : Mavis Staples - Your Good Fortune

Why did you spend your good fortune on me?

Why did you spend your good fortune on me?

Did you leave me to suffer,

Just to suffer in breath

Did you picked to the leaders,

and you settled on me?

Am I just play thing for the wind like leaf?

Or did you need me exactly where I need to be?

Tell me why did you spend your good fortune on me?

Why did you spend your good fortune on me?

AI can tell you of sorrow

Of losing, of pain

I can cry through the letter

If it'd washed you away

I can give you a reason, two reasons or three

I can tell you my heart is

From leanness and grieve

Tell me why did you spend your good fortune on me?

Ooh, oh why did you spend your good fortune on me?

I can tell you a story, tell it simple and plain

Tell your life is a candle

It flickrs and I'm a flame

So if I give a reason for me to say what I'm saying,

I'd say that you are the answer to my question everyday

Saying why did you spend your good fortune on me?

Tell me why did you spend your great fortune on me?

Why did you spend your good fortune on me?

Ooh oh, why did you spend your good fortune on me?!

On me? On me?
