(God has my fortune laid away)

Oh the world is full of people with money just to burn

Affording all the things in life for which a man might yearn

Some can take life easy but I live from day by day

God has my fortune laid away

I search for sunshine every day but there always comes the rain

The hope over my horizon was smoke without a flame
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/j/johnny+cash/god+must+have+my+fortune+laid+away_20204078.html ]
Pockets that stay empty dreams that go astray

God has my fortune laid away

(God has my fortune laid away laid away)

Oh how often I have wondered why some things have to be

Some people live in riches while some live just like me

The more I try to work and save the more I have to pay

But God has my fortune laid away (laid away)

I search for sunshine...
