Lyrics
Fool Killer
I was walking down the backstreet other night
I've got a funny feeling everything was right
Heard somebody's footsteps right behind
And I know it wasn't just in my mind
Fool killer's coming
Getting closer every day
You know the fool killer's coming
I've got to try to make my getaway
I've been living in this country eight years
Scratching and a-scraping for that dollar bill
Eight million people living on the brink
Got no time to stop and think
Fool killer's coming
I do believe it's true
You know the fool killer's coming
You know he's got his eye on me and you
If you've never been a fool and you don't have to worry
You know you had better get in a hurry
Just to be on the safe side
Get yourself a place to hide
Fool killer's coming
Getting closer every day
You know the fool killer's coming
I've got to try to make my getaway
