I'd Still Play the Fool

(Ben Weisman - Edna Lewis)



Though you told me lies and left when I cried

Took my trusting heart and tore it apart

I'd run back to you if you'd just say when

If I had it to do all over again.



Though you gave your charms to so many arms

Loved me for a day then threw me away

I'd still play the fool to the winter end

If I had it to do all over again.



It's the old old story of the moth and a flame

Though you've burned me darling I want you just the same

I'd still play the fool to the winter end

If I had it to do all over again.



I'd still play the fool to the winter end

If I had it to do all over again.



I'd still play the fool, I'd still play the fool...
