Days Of Old

Eric Clapton · Riding With The King [2000]

Way back yonder in the days of old,

The men was working but not saving any dough.

Then came a woman looking real cool.

She said to herself, "Now that's my fool."



[Chorus:]

I'm gonna ball tonight.

I'm gonna ball tonight.

Well, I can't break the rule because

Every man is some woman's fool.



Met a girl on the avenue,

She was shy and I was blue,

Like a teacher and a student in school,

Looked at me and said, "You're my fool."



[Chorus]



[Repeat First Verse]



[Chorus]



We're gonna ball tonight.

We're gonna ball tonight.

We're gonna ball tonight.

We're gonna ball tonight.

Well I can't break the rule because

Every man is some woman's fool.
