FOOL TO CRY
(Mick Jagger / Keith Richards)

Recorded by : The Rolling Stones; Royal Philharmonic Orch.


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
Certified fool, for ya, mama, come on
I'm a fool
I'm a fool
I'm a fool
