Riches To Rags

Five years ago one of the wealthy men of the town
But now declared bankrupt and financially down
The bank has re-possessed his big new home and his car
It is when you are down you know who your friends are

His marriage ended in divorce his wife and their two young daughters in a town far away
It is said she has an older wealthy man in her life today
When the going on him got financially tough with him she did not stay
Money speaks every language as some do like to say

In a cheap bedsitter flat rental surviving on welfare
Riches to rags stories nowadays are not even rare
Forsaken by all of his wealthy friends he is now on his own
Nowadays they ignore him as if him they had never known

Only in his mid thirties a  once wealthy man
All things in life do not always go to plan
A business deal gone wrong left him in a  financial mess
He once had many admirers but nowadays none he does impress.
