When I come home baby
And I've been working all night long
I put my daughter on my knee, and she say
Daddy what's wrong?
I put my head on her shoulder
She whispers in my ear so sweet
You know what she says?
Daddy you're a fool to cry
You're a fool to cry
And it makes me wonder why
You know, I got a woman
And she lives in the poor part of town
And I go see her sometimes
And we make love, so fine
I put my head on her shoulder
She says: Tell me all your troubles
You know what she says? She says
Daddy you're a fool to cry
You're a fool to cry
And it makes me wonder why
Daddy you're a fool to cry
Oh, I love you so much baby
Daddy you're a fool to cry
Daddy you're a fool to cry, yeah
She says: Daddy you're a fool to cry
You're a fool to cry
And it makes me wonder why
She says: Daddy you're a fool to cry
Daddy you're a fool to cry
Daddy you're a fool to cry
Daddy you're a fool to cry
Even my friends say to me sometimes
And make out like I don't understand them
You know what they say
They say: Daddy you're a fool to cry
You're a fool to cry
You're a fool to cry
And it makes me wonder why
I'm a fool, baby
I'm a fool, baby
I'm a certified fool, now
I want to tell ya
Gotta tell ya, baby
I'm a fool, baby
I'm a fool, baby
Certified fool for ya, mama, come on
I'm a fool
I'm a fool
I'm a fool
