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
