Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Man, be careful with a fool
You know, someday he may get smart
Be careful with a fool
You know, someday he may get smart
He will treat you so cool and chilly
Till he will hurt you to your heart
[Verse 2]
Yeah, you know
Hate to remember, oh
What a fool I used to be
Man, I hate to remember
How foolish I used to be
The way I used to love you, baby
How bad it's gonna be
[Verse 3]
You know, I used to cry 'bout you, baby
You know, I'd walk the streets late at night
Used to cry about ya, walk the streets late at night
If you love me just a little bit, baby
Why in the world don't you treat me right?
Ah, yeah
[Verse 4]
Oh, yeah
Yeah
Ah
Ah
Yeah, baby
[Verse 5]
Uh, it like finally over, baby, whoa
I believe this is the end
Finally over, baby, oh
I believe this is the end, ah
I want you to tell my baby to forgive me for my sin
