Artist/Band: George Strait
Lyrics for Song: Fool Hearted Memory
Lyrics for Album: Very Best Of Strait, Vol. 1:1981-87 [Universal In] [2004]



(Byron Hill - Alan R. Mevis)



Nickles and dimes, memories and wine

She's on his mind once again

The same old stool, the same old fool

Played by the rules but didn't win

There's an old love in his heart that he can't lose

He'd try forgettin' but he knows that it's no use.



Chorus:

He's got a fool hearted memory

It won't let him see

That she walked out the door

He's got a fool hearted memory

And he sits patiently

Here every night so it can fool him more.



--- Instrumental ---



She was his girl, his only world

That string of pearls that slipped away

A thousand dimes, a thousand times

He doesn't mind what they say

He fills the jukebox then plays the same old song

He fills his glass and then he turns her memory on.



Chorus:

But it's a fool hearted memory

It won't let him see

That she walked out the door

He's got a fool hearted memory

And he sits patiently

Here every night so it can fool him more.



Chorus:

He's got a fool hearted memory

It won't let him see

That she walked out the door

He's got a fool hearted memory

And he sits patiently

Here every night so it can fool him more...
