Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We've been together, oh, so long
Listen, baby
I'm gonna love you right or wrong, hey
Don't fence me out 'cause I love you so
And I never, ever want to let you go
[Verse 2]
But you keep trying to make a fool of me
Trying to make a fool of me
Trying to make a fool of me
Trying to make a fool of me
You keep trying, trying, trying
Trying, trying, trying
Oh, yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
Our love was done before it start
Listen, baby
You think that you are having fun, hey
Somehow I know when you're hurtin' me so
Sooner or later going to let me go
[Verse 4]
And you keep trying to make a fool of me
Trying to make a fool of me
Trying to make a fool of me
Trying to make a fool of me
You keep trying, trying, trying
Trying, trying, trying
Oh, yeah, yeah
[Verse 5]
Somehow I know (Somehow I know)
When you're hurtin' me so (When you're hurtin' me so)
Sooner or later going to let me go
[Verse 6]
And you keep trying to make a fool of me (Try to)
Trying to make a fool of me (Make, oh, yeah)
Trying to make a fool of me (Try to)
Trying to make a fool of me (Make a fool)
Trying to make a fool of me (Try, yes, you tried, baby)
Trying to make a fool of me
Trying to make a fool of me (Oh)
Trying to make a fool of me (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Trying to make a fool of me (Oh, baby)
