I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
But i don't care even if i was a fool
I'm still in love with you
Had i listened to the grapevine
I might have had my doubts
But i did my level best just to block them out
'cause love is so unwise and love has no eyes
And it took a while for a fool to see
What his friends were on about
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
But i don't care even if i was a fool
I'm still in love with you
Imagining your face
It almost fills the empty space before me
I can see you eyes and almost hear your lovely lies
I wish i was an old man
And love was through with me
I wish i was a baby on my mama's knee
I wish i was a freight train moving down the line
Just keeping track of time
Without all these memories
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
But i don't care even if i was a fool
I'm still in love with you
Baby, yes, i am
I could have opened my eyes
I could have seen through your lies
I could have stood for no more
I could have walked out the door
But i was a fool to care, i was a fool to care
But i was a fool to care, i was a fool to care
You weren't nothing but a fool to care; just a country fool to care.
