I used to play around with heartsThat hastened at my call But when I met that little girl I knew that I would fallPoor little fool, oh yeahI was a fool, uh-huh (Uh-huh, poor little fool) (I was a fool, oh yeah)She’d play around and tease meWith her carefree devil eyes She’d hold me close and kiss me But her heart was full of liesPoor little fool, oh yeahI was a fool, uh-huh (Uh-huh, poor little fool) (I was a fool, oh yeah)She told me how she cared for meAnd that we’d never part And so for the very first time I gave away my heartPoor little fool, oh yeahI was a fool, uh-huh (Uh-huh, poor little fool) (I was a fool, oh yeah)The next day she was goneAnd I knew she’d lied to me She left me with a broken heart And won her victoryPoor little fool, oh yeahI was a fool, uh-huh (Uh-huh, poor little fool) (I was a fool, oh yeah)Well, I played this game with other heartsBut I never thought I’d see The day when someone else would play Love’s foolish game with mePoor little fool, oh yeahI was a fool, uh-huh (Uh-huh, poor little fool) (I was a fool, oh yeah)Poor little fool, oh yeahI was a fool, uh-huh (Uh-huh, poor little fool) (Poor little fool)
