Lyrics

Nobody's fool this heart has never been broken
I kept my eyes wide open
Every time she said she loved me
Nobody's clown, no I never joined that circus
I played it cool
I'm nobody's fool
Nobody's toy, I wasn't made to play with
Just love 'em and leave 'em
That's my game and I got to remain
Nobody's love
Nobody's bread and butter
Yeah, I played it cool
And I'm nobody's fool
When I wake up in the morning
My day belongs to me
When I come home in the evening
My nights belong to me
I feel so free, so doggone free
I feel so free, so doggone free
Nobody's fool
Nobody's one and only
I guess that's why I'm so lonely
I'm nobody's fool
Nobody's fool
Ta ta ta ta
I made this bed that I sleep in
It's the one that I weep in
Oh Lord, I get so lonely
Ta ta ta ta
