WHO'S FOOLIN' WHO?
(Kay Starr / Yerxa)

Kay Starr
with The Lamplighter All Stars
recorded December 1945 Los Angeles


In love I was a firm believer,
Until one day I met a gay deceiver,
A double dater,
A stay out later,
Who changed my point of view!

Who's foolin' who?
I can see through you!
Your every caper,
Like carbon paper,
Traces back to you!

Who's foolin' who
When I say I do?
You go out places
With strange new faces,
What a thing to do!

You fooled me once,
You fooled me twice,
With your two-time antics!
Now I ask you,
Was that nice
To cause those heartbeat panics?

Now that we're through,
I can say to you,
If the shoe fits, wear it,
Grin and bear it,
Who's foolin' who?

You fooled me once,
You fooled me twice,
With your two-time antics!
Now I ask you,
Was that nice
To cause those heartbeat panics?

Now that we're through,
I can say to you,
If the shoe fits, wear it,
Grin and bear it,
Who's foolin' who?
Let's get down to cases,
We'll go places,
Baby who's foolin' who?
