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?" She whisper in my ear so sweet You know what she says? She say Oo daddy you're a fool to cry You're a fool to cry And it makes me wonder why
(Daddy you're a fool)
You know I got a woman And she live in a 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 say Oo daddy you're a fool to cry You're a fool to cry And it makes me wonder why
Oo daddy you're a fool to cry She say Oo daddy you're a fool to cry You're a fool to cry And it makes me wonder why
She say Oooo daddy you're a fool to cry Oooo daddy you're a fool to cry Oooo daddy you're a fool to cry Oooo 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 Oo daddy you're a fool to cry You're a fool to cry And it makes me wonder why
