Poor Little Fool lyrics

I used to play around with hearts

that hastened at my call,

But when I met that little girl

I knew that I would fall.

(chorus)

Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..

She played around and teased me

with her carefree devil eyes,

She'd hold me close and kiss me

but her heart was full of lies.

(chorus)

She told me how she cared for me

and that we'd never part,

And so for the very first time

I gave away my heart.

(chorus)

The next day she was gone

and I knew she'd lied to me,

She left me with a broken heart

and won her victory.

(chorus)

I'd played this game with other hearts

but I never thought I'd see,

The day that someone else would play

love's foolish game with me.

(chorus)
