Gather round me buddies
Hold your glasses high
And drink to a fool, a crazy fool who told his baby goodbye
Too late he found out he loves her
So much he wants to die
But drink to a fool, a crazy fool who told his baby goodbye
He needs her, he needs her so
He wonders why he let her go-oo-oo
She's found a new love, buddy
He's a lucky guy
So drink to the fool, 'cause I'm that fool who told his baby goodbye
He needs her, he needs her so
He wonders why he let her go-oo-oo
She's found a new love, buddy
He's a lucky guy
So drink to the fool, 'cause I'm that fool who told my baby goodbye
My baby goodbye
Who told my baby, who told my baby...
The Fool was written by Lee Hazlewood & Naomi Ford.
