I know I'm just a fool, for messin' around with you
I know I'm just a fool, for messin' around with you
Gonna leave you where I found you, that's what I'm gonna do

When I first met you, baby, you were really beat
You were raggedy as a mop from your head to your feet
I know I'm just a fool, for messin' around with you
Gonna leave you where I found you, that's what I'm gonna do

I've been good to you, baby, as a man could be
Now, you're telling everybody I'm just a sucker on the streets
I know I'm just a fool, for messin' around with you
Gonna leave you where I found you, what I'm gonna do

I ain't gonna buy you no more fur coats, no more silk and hose
No more spendin' my money ridin' up and down the road
I know I'm just a fool, for messin' around with you
Gonna leave you where I found you, that's what I'm gonna do

I'm gonna leave you where I found you, that's what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna leave you where I found you, that's what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna leave you where I found you, that's what I'm gonna do
