Poor Little Fool — Ricky Nelson Lyrics

Poor Little Fool Song Lyrics

---

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
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh
(Uh huh, poor little fool, I was a fool, oh yeah)

She'd play around and teased me with her carefree Devil eyes
She'd hold me close and kiss me but her heart was full of lies
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh
(Uh huh poor little fool, I was the fool, oh yeah)

She told me how she cared for me, and that we'd never part
And so for the very first time, I gave away my heart
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh
(Uh huh, poor little fool I was a fool, oh yeah)

Then the next day she was gone and I knew she lied to me
She left me with a broken heart and won her victory
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh
(Uh huh, poor little fool, I was a fool, oh yeah)

Well I'd played this game with other hearts, but I never thought I'd see
The day that someone else would play love's foolish game with me
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh
(Uh huh, poor little fool, I was a fool, oh yeah)
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh
(Uh huh, poor little fool, little fool)
