I Took Her For A Fool

[Verse 1]
I'm sitting in this honky-tonk, down to my last dime
I'll bet you've heard this tale of woe at least a million times
I'm the guy that used to own that big house 'cross the track
But the only thing that I own now are these clothes upon my back

[Chorus]
A different girl most every night, I thought this was the life
I tried to please them all, but that just didn't please my wife
I've kicked myself a million times for treating her so bad
I took her for a fool, so she took me for all I had

[Verse 2]
I used to have a big garage, two Cadillacs inside
A pretty wife who loved just me, but I wasn't satisfied
The house, the wife, the car belong now to another man
'cause she caught me with another girl and that's when it hit the fan

[Chorus]
A different girl most every night, I thought this was the life
I tried to please them all, but that just didn't please my wife
I've kicked myself a million times for treating her so bad
I took her for a fool, so she took me for all I had
