I Wanna Know Why

[Verse 1]

Kicking down the road

Feeling mighty slowed

With the likes of you

Getting mighty spaced

Never had a taste

Of what you're going' through

I can't bitch

Went from rags to riches

Then to ragtime screaming the blues

[Chorus]

I wanna know why

Everybody's good intentions

Try to make a fool out to of me

I wanna know why

Everybody's good intentions

Got to make a fool

Got to make a fool

Try to make a fool out to of me

[Verse 2]

Swing low

Sweet cherry o

When a strange love showed me the way

You see more

Can't keep a score

When the whore's coming on for the play

[Chorus]

I wanna know why

Everybody's good intentions

Try to make a fool out to of me

I wanna know why

Everybody's good intentions

Got to make a fool

Got to make a fool

Try to make a fool out to of me

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]

E. Poe

Eating crow

Wonder if he know that the raven was mad

[Chorus]

I wanna know why

Everybody's good intentions

Try to make a fool out to of me

I wanna know why

Everybody's good intentions

Got to make a fool

Got to make a fool

Try to make a fool out to of me

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]

Oh, they play rough and can't get lost

So they try to make a fool out of me, Lordy

Ain't fooling me

Ya ain't ghooling me

Ain't fooling me

Ya ain't ghooling me
