Lyrics

Only a fool, you gotta be a fool to think I'd fall in love with you
Gotta be a fool to think I'll fall in love with you
Fall in love with you and expect you to be true
Oh, you gotta be a fool
Oh, look at him, people (Look at him, people)
I know you wonder what he's doing (Woo, woo)
He's just standing there tryna make a fool out of me (Out of me)
Look at him, people (Look at him, people)
I know you wonder what he's doing (Woo, woo)
By the things he's saying, he's just tryna make a fool out of me
Oh, you gotta be a fool to think I'd fall in love with you
Got to be a fool, baby, to think I'd fall in love with you
Can't have love today, tomorrow all the way
You gotta be a fool, oh yeah, yeah
Look at him, people (Look at him, people)
I know you wonder what he's doing (Woo, woo)
He's just standing there tryna make a fool out of me (Out of me)
Look at him, people (Look at him, people)
I know you wonder what he doing (Woo, woo)
By the things he's saying, Lord, he's just tryna make a fool out of me, oh yeah
Oh yeah, yeah
Oh, look at him, people, yeah (Look at him, people)
Know you wonder what he's doing (Woo, woo)
He's just standing there watching you make a fool out of me (Out of me)
Look at him, people (Look at him, people)
I know you wonder what he's doing, I say it now (Woo, woo)
He's just standing there tryna make a fool out of me (Out of me)
No way (Fool, fool, fool, fool)
Will you make a fool out of me (Fool, fool, fool out of me)
I said you ain't gonna (Fool, fool, fool, fool)
Make a fool out of me (Fool, fool, fool out of me)
I said no way (Fool, fool, fool, fool)
He gon' (Fool, fool, fool out of me)
Make a fool out (Fool, fool, fool, fool)
Of me (Fool, fool, fool out of me)
Ain't no way (Fool, fool, fool, fool)
That he's gonna (Fool, fool, fool out of me)
Make a fool out of (Fool, fool, fool, fool)
Me (Fool, fool, fool out of me)
Only a fool gotta (Fool, fool, fool, fool)
Be a fool (Fool, fool, fool out of me)
Make you dumb (Fool, fool, fool, fool)
Gotta be a (Fool, fool, fool out of me)
Gotta be a fool (Fool, fool, fool, fool)
