Call Me A Fool

[Chorus]

Call me a fool

Call me a fool

A heart forlorn

A heart that’s scorned

A new love born

[Verse 1: Valerie June, Carla Thomas]

Thought I had it under control, yeah (Thought I had it under control, yeah)

But it shook me, gripped me, grabbed my soul, yeah (Grabbed my soul, yeah)

Heard it pounding, knocking on the door, yeah (Oh)

When I knew I had to let it go

Don’t you know I wish that I could help it

Don’t you know I wish that I could forget

But this new love is so strong that

But it’s a power keeps me holding on (Keeps me holding on)

[Chorus]

Yeah they call me a fool

Darlin' they call me a fool

For your love baby

And I’ll be a fool any time

I’ll be a fool any time, any time for loving you

[Verse 2]

I’vе been wishing things had been different

But I guess thе cards, they fall the way they're meant

Win or lose or draw you play the hand you’re sent

Beggar, borrower, given, taken, lent

I’ve been drinking, staying drunk all day

Got me creeping but it’s not late at night

Got my life twisted, turned it upside down

Just a fool to hang around

[Chorus]

So they call me a fool

Call me a fool for your love baby

And I’ll be a fool any time

I’ll be a fool any time, any time for loving you

So you can call me a fool

Call me a fool for your love baby

And I’ll be a fool any time

I’ll be a fool any time, any time for loving you

[Chorus]

Da di da di da da

Da di da di da da

Da di da di da da

Da di da da

Da di da da

[Chorus]

So you can call me a fool

Call me a fool

For your love baby

And I’ll be a fool any time

I’ll be a fool any time, any time for loving you

[Outro]

Thought I had it under control, yeah
