"I'm A Fool For Loving Her"

"I'm A Fool For Loving Her"


How can you say I want you and keep on giving more
You know where I'm going when I walk out the door
She wraps me 'round her finger as any fool can see
But I'm a fool for loving her and you're a fool for loving me.

She doesn't really want me, oh, but she keeps me hangin' on
I'm just someone to talk to when she's all alone
I know you keep on hoping someday she'll set me free
Well, I'm a fool for loving her, you're a fool for loving me.

She stole your pride, now you're nothin' but a fly
It drives me insane still I can't change the way I feel inside
How can you say I love you, I've taken all you have to give
How can you go on livin' the way you have to live
Oh, but here you are beside me still to blind to see
But I'm a fool for loving her and you're a fool for loving me.

I'm a fool for loving her and you're a fool for loving me

"I'm A Fool To Care"

"I'm A Fool To Care"


I'm a fool to care when you treat me this way
I know I love you but what can I do, I'm a fool to care
I'm a fool to cry when you tell me goodbye
You left me so blue when you were untrue, I'm a fool to care.

I know I should laugh and call it a day
But I know I would cry if you went away
I'm a fool to care when you don't care for me
Why should I pretend I'll lose in the end, I'm a fool to care.

(I know I should laugh and call it a day
But I know I would cry if you went away)
I'm a fool to care when you don't care for me
Why should I pretend I'll lose in the end, I'm a fool to care...

"I'm A Long Gone Daddy"

"I'm A Long Gone Daddy"


Well, all you want to do is sit around and talk
And now I've got enough and I'm a-steppin' out
I'm leavin' now, hey, I'm leavin' now
Hey, I'm a long gone daddy I don't need you anyhow
Oh, I've been in the doghouse for so doggone long
That when I get a kiss I think that somethin's wrong
So I'm leavin' now, hey, I'm leavin' now
Cause, I'm a long gone daddy I don't need you anyhow

Hey, I'm leavin now.

You go get yourself a man that wants to fuss and fight
So I'm leavin' now, hey,I'm leavin' now

You never hush your mouth until I blow my top

Things have changed you'd rather fight than eat
So I'm leavin' now, yeah, I'm leavin' now
Cause I'm a long gone daddy I don't need you anyhow
Yeah, I'm gonna do some ridin' on the midnight train

Well, I'm leavin' now, I'm leavin' now
Cause I'm a long gone daddy I don't need you anyhow
Yeah, I'm a long gone daddy I don't need you anyhow...

"I'm A One Woman Man"

"I'm A One Woman Man"


If you told me that you love me
I would feel so proud
If you'd let me hold you honey
I'd holler out loud
I'll never love another
Even if I can
Come to me baby I'm a one woman man

Won't you let me baby just a kind of hang around
I'll always love you honey and I'll never let you down
I'll never love another even if I can
Well come to me baby I'm a one woman man

I'd climb the highest mountain
If it reached a bigger sky
To prove that I love you
I'd jump off and fly
I'd even swim the ocean
From shore to shore
To prove that I love you
Just a little bit more

Won't you let me baby just a kind of hang around
I'll always love you honey and I'll never let you down
I'll never love another even if I can
Well come to me baby I'm a one woman man

If you told me that you love me
I would feel so proud
If you'd let me hold you honey
I'd holler out loud
I'll never love another
Even if I can
Come to me baby I'm a one woman man

Won't you let me baby just a kind of hang around
I'll always love honey and I'll never let you down
I'll never love another even if I can
Well come to me baby I'm a one woman man
Come to me baby I'm a one woman man...

"I'm A People"

"I'm A People"


There I was on the marquee, a-workin' for a livin',
I've been gettin' instead of a-givin'.
A-hangin' by my tail, a-waitin' for the dinner bell,
Puttin' humans off.

Every day, them fools rush in,
And lay down my cage and watch them grin
I put 'em all off, I'd hum a little song,
An' watch 'em all go tee-hee.

But I spell a P, a little bitty E.
Sweet bop, bop, bop, sh-shoo, shoobie doobie doh,
In a little round O.
Now you add another P, a big skinny L,
There's a-one more E,
An' you got a people that looks like me.

Now a monkey don't have to go down town,
An' ask for a job an' gettin' turned down.
I'm mad at me, I could smash me,
'Cause I am a people.

Now, a monkey don't have to shoot an' speak,
All he do is drink his fees.
Oh, me, what luxury.
But I'm a people.

Now I spell a P, a little bitty E.
Sweet bop, bop, bop, a-shoo, shoobie doobie doh,
In a little round O.
Now you add another P, a big skinny L,
There's a-one more E,
An' you got a creature that looks like me.

Now if anyone knocked on my door today,
There'd be a little sign says: "Gone away.
"Down to the zoo, diggin' you know who,
'Cause I'm a people.

Now I spell a P, a little bitty E.
Sweet bop, bop, bop, sh-shoo, shoobie doobie doh,
In a little round O.
Now you add another P, a big skinny L,
There's a-one more E,
An' you got a creature that looks like me...

"I'm A Survivor"

"I'm A Survivor"


They say I'm somebody so I try to live up to the name
But I'm just not that good at dealin' with fortune and fame
I've made mistakes, more than I care to recall
But one way or another I always get over the fall.

I'm a survivor, I've paid my dues
I wrote the book on hard knocks and I've bathed in the blues
I've been the feature on the six o'clock news
Well, I'm a survivor, dancin' the blues.

Sometimes I'd wonder how I've managed to live through it all
Yes, I've spent a lifetime of living with my back to the wall
The records will show that I've had my share of regrets
But as long as I'm breathing you ain't heard the last of me yet.

I'm a survivor, I've paid my dues
Doing my best with the hand that I drew
Just playing the part Lord, I couldn't refuse
Yeah, I'm a survivor win, draw or lose.

Yeah, I'm a survivor win, draw or lose

"I'm All She's Got"

"I'm All She's Got"


You're lookin' at a satisfied fellow
Unhappy, well, I should say not
If somebody told me that she cheated
No, I wouldn't believe them 'cause I'm all she's got.

I'm the reason that she goes on with him
Oh, she loves me with all of her heart
No, she can't get enough of my lovin'
She'd be nothin' without me 'cause I'm all she's got.

I'm all she's got and that's all I know
Anything else would just kill my soul
I'll be contented, oh, if she never stopped
Saying that she loves me and I'm all she's got.

I'll be contented if she never stopped
Saying she loves me and I'm all she's got

"I'm Finally Over You"

"I'm Finally Over You"


Sweetheart, it's been several days now
Since they found me on the street
But since then and old friend lonely cried
And it's got me back on my feet.

This morning I'll just drink enough
To knock me out by noon
Yes, I've was down for a little while
But I'm finally over you.

The sun outside it is much to bright
That's why I'm wearing these shades
And the reason I haven't shaved is because
The drug store ran out of blades.

So if you hear that I'm not makin' it
Don't believe it because it's not true
Yes, I was down for a little while
But I'm finally over you.

So if you hear that I'm not makin' it
Don't believe it because it's not true
Yes, I was down for a little while
But I'm finally over you

"I'm Gonna Change Everything"

"I'm Gonna Change Everything"


I'm gonna change everything
Yes, I'm gonna change everything
That holds a memory of you
Woa! yeah. humm, oh yeah.

I'm gonna start with the walls
Take the pictures off the walls and burn 'em
Move the chairs around
Take the window curtains down and burn 'em
Everything I see reminds me you were here.

Yes, I'm gonna change everything
That holds a memory of you
Woa! yeah.

The candlelabra set
You gave me on the night of my birthday
The records that you bought
The hi-fi we loved to play
The decorating man will come and rearrange them.

Yes, I'm gonna change everything
That holds a memory of you
Woa! yeah.

Take the carpet off the floor
Throw it out the door, it's filled with tears
Everything I find
That brings you to my mind must disappear
Every night I dream
I'll dream of someone new.

Yes, I'm gonna change everything
That holds a memory of you
Woa! yeah, humm, oh yeah, humm, oh yeah...

"I'm Just Blue Enough"

"I'm Just Blue Enough"


I'm just blue enough to do most anything
And I know I'm going to hate myself again
But I know you don't want me like I want you
Or you'd be afraid to let me get this blue.

You could call me up and tell me that you're blue
I can make believe you're not with someone new
You could give my heart the will to part with pain
I'm just blue enough to do most anything.

You can get forgiveness for the wrong you've done
Or the heartache that you caused by that response
But the words you spoke you never can undo
That's what you've done to make me in love with you.

You could call me up and tell me that you're blue
I can make believe you're not with someone new
You could give my heart the will to part with pain
I'm just blue enough to do most anything...
