Lyrics

Folks say I'm naturally kind
I'd like to think that they're right
They say I'm kind, but in their minds
They're really laughing at me
I'll lend a hand to any man
And if that's wrong, you really can
Call me foolish, foolish, foolish, foolish am I
That's what they call me
Foolish, foolish, foolish, foolish am I
They say that I'm out of my mind
I let the world walk on me
Good friends of mine say that I'm blind
They take advantage of me
Is it a crime just to be kind?
And if that's wrong, then you can
Call me foolish, foolish, foolish, foolish am I
That's what they call me
Foolish, foolish, foolish, foolish am I
Call me foolish, foolish, foolish, foolish am I
That's what they call me
Foolish, foolish, foolish, foolish am I
Everyone calls me foolish, foolish, foolish, foolish am I
So foolish am I
That's what they call me, foolish, foolish
Written by: B. Hawes, J. Jefferson, Linda Creed
