Poor Little Fool

Ike And Tina Turner · Other Songs - Ike And Tina Turner

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.



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.



Poor little fool, oh yeah,

I was a fool, uh huh



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.



Poor little fool, oh yeah,

I was a fool, uh huh



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.



Poor little fool, oh yeah,

I was a fool, uh huh



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.



Poor little fool, oh yeah,

I was a fool, uh huh
