Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I must have been through about a million girls
I'd love 'em and I'd leave 'em alone
I didn't care how much they cried, no sir
Their tears left me cold as a stone
[Verse 2]
But then I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
[Verse 3]
It used to be when I'd see a girl that I liked
I'd get out my book and write down her name
But when the grass got a little greener
On the other side
I'd just tear out that page
[Verse 4]
But then I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
Since I met you baby
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
Yes, I did
[Verse 5]
But I've been stung this time, baby
And guess what
I'm in love
I'm in love
Lord, have mercy
[Verse 6]
Free, on my own
That's the way it used to be
But since I met you baby
Love's got a hold on me
[Verse 7]
Fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
Yes, I did
[Verse 8]
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love, yes I did
I fooled around, fooled around, fooled around
And fell in love
