The Rolling Stones

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 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."

You know makes me wonder why

She say, Oo-oo oo 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?

The say, "Oo, Daddy, you're a fool to cry

You're a fool to cry

And it makes me wonder why"



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 her head on my 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,"

You know makes me wonder why

She say, "Oo-oo 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?

The say, "Oo, Daddy, you're a fool to cry

You're a fool to cry

And it makes me wonder why"



Vocal Ad lib:

I'm a fool, baby

I'm a fool, baby

I'm a certified fool

I want to tell ya, gotta tell ya 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
