I Played the Fool

I Played the Fool - Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes Lyrics

Like the child who's soul's a flame

That loves to burn

I'm just the kind of guy who never learns

I guess you had to go

Why was I the last to know?



I played the fool, girl

I did just what you expected

I played the fool, girl

And you're making it so hard

To leave this time



I see so much when I look in your eyes

I just can't help myself, I'm hypnotized

It's my turn to walk away

But baby, I'll be back someday



I played the fool, girl

I did just what you expected

I played the fool, girl

And you're making it so hard

To leave this time



It's my turn to walk away

But baby, I'll be back someday



I played the fool, girl

I did just what you expected

I played the fool, girl

And you're making it so hard

To leave this time



I played the fool, girl

I did just what you expected

I played the fool, girl

I played the fool, girl



I played the fool, I played the fool

I played the fool, I played the fool

I played the fool, I played the fool

I played the fool
