Poor Little Fool Lyrics by The Fleetwoods

1962

[Intro]
Ooo, ooo, poor little fool, oh, yeah
Ooo, ooo, poor little fool, oh, yeah
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
Poor little fool, oh, yeah
I was a fool, uh huh
(Oh, oh, poor little fool, you were a fool, oh, yeah)
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
Poor little fool, oh, yeah
I was a fool, uh huh
(Oh, oh, poor little fool, you were a fool, oh, yeah)
[Verse 3]
She told me how she cared for me
That we'd never part
And so for the very first time
I gave away my heart
[Chorus]
Poor little fool, oh, yeah
I was a fool, uh huh
(Oh, oh, poor little fool, you were a fool, oh, yeah)
[Verse 4]
The next day she was gone
And I knew she'd lied to me
She left me with a broken heart
Won her victory
[Chorus]
Poor little fool, oh, yeah
I was a fool, uh huh
(Oh, oh, poor little fool, you were a fool, oh, yeah)
[Verse 5]
Well, I'd played this game with other hearts
But I never thought I'd see
The day when someone else would play
Love's foolish game with me
[Chorus]
Poor little fool, oh, yeah
I was a fool, uh huh
(Oh, oh, poor little fool, you were a fool, oh, yeah)
[Outro]
(Oh, oh, poor little fool, you were a fool, oh, yeah)
(Oh, oh, poor little fool, oh, yeah)
