I let the pain just walk on in
And I pulled up the nearest chair
No need to say, hey, how you been
We've been friends too long to care
Baby, you're the cause
Of my sleepless nights
But it's not that
I'm about to complain
You get used to it
Sing your blues to it
(CHORUS)
Once a fool, always a fool
There's no way to change
To be rearranged anymore
Once a fool, always a fool
When you ring the bell
I can tell who you're ready for
I always find you with alibis
When I know you're the guilty one
I never ask for a reason why
You come home with the rising sun
What the use of making it harder, boy
When it's hard enough already for me
Be it right or wrong
I shall play along
(CHORUS) 2X
Once a fool, always a fool
