Fool to Cry

When I come home baby

And I've been working all night long

I put my daughter on my knee, and she say

"Daddy what's wrong?"

I put my head on her shoulder

She whispers in my ear so sweet

You know what she says?

"Daddy you're a fool to cry

You're a fool to cry

And it makes me wonder why."

You know, I got a woman

And she lives in the poor part of town

and I go see her sometimes

And we make love, so fine

I put my head on her shoulder

She says, "Tell me all your troubles."

You know what she says? She says

"Daddy you're a fool to cry

You're a fool to cry

and it makes me wonder why."

Daddy you're a fool to cry

Oh, I love you so much baby

Daddy you're a fool to cry

Daddy you're a fool to cry, yeah

She says, "Daddy you're a fool to cry

You're a fool to cry

And it makes me wonder why."

She says, "Daddy you're a fool to cry

Daddy you're a fool to cry

Daddy you're a fool to cry

Daddy you're a fool to cry

Even my friends say to me sometimes

And make out like I don't understand them

You know what they say?

They say, "Daddy you're a fool to cry

You're a fool to cry

You're a fool to cry

And it makes me wonder why."

I'm a fool baby

I'm a fool baby

I'm a certified fool, now

I want to tell ya

Gotta tell ya, baby

I'm a fool baby

I'm a fool baby

Certified fool for ya, mama, come on

I'm a fool

I'm a fool

I'm a fool
