I was a fool to care,
I was a fool to care,
I was a fool to care,
But I don't care even
If I was a fool
I'm still in love with you.
Had I listened to the grapevine,
I might have had my doubts.
But I did my level best
Just to block them out.
Cause love is so unwise
And love has no eyes,
And it took a while
For a fool to see
What his friends were on about.
I was a fool to care,
I was a fool to care,
I was a fool to care,
But I don't care even
If I was a fool
I'm still in love with you.
Imagining your face,
It almost fills
The empty space before me.
I can see your eyes
And almost hear your lovely lies.
I wish I was an old man
And love was through with me.
I wish I was a baby on my mama's knee.
I wish I was a freight train
Moving down the line,
Just keeping track of time
Without all these memories
I was a fool to care,
I was a fool to care,
I was a fool to care,
But I don't care even
If I was a fool
I'm still in love with you, babe, yes, I am.
I could have opened my eyes,
I could have seen through your lies,
I could have stood for no more,
I could have walked out the door.
But I was a fool to care,
I was a fool to care.
But I was a fool to care,
I was a fool to care.
You weren't nothing but a fool to care,
Just a country fool to care.
You weren't nothing but a fool to care,
Just a country fool to care...
