Should
have known in laughter she would leave me
My sweetest dream of heaven now is gone
And from crazy paradise I've just awakened
To find out that I've been a fool too long
I met her amidst the music of a dance band
Into my arms she sweetly came along
And now this verse of mine will end in nothing
But just to say I've been a fool too long Oh,
there ain't no use in me a-cryin', baby
There ain't no use in tellin' me that I'm wrong
Forget, forget, my gee, that's all I say now
Forget that I have been a fool too long
Just riddle now, whoa!
She'd kind of take my money and she'd spend it
She'd kind of tell me off when things went wrong
Till one day my best friend came out and told me
For goodness sake, don't be a fool too long
There's lots and lots of things that I could tell you
Her name I shall not mention in this
song
Cos she's not worthy of a single sentence
But what's the use?
I've been a fool too long Oh,
there ain't no use in me a-cryin', baby
There ain't no use in tellin' me that I'm wrong
Forget, forget, my gee, that's all I say now
Forget that I have been a fool too long
Hey, forget that I have been a fool too long
Thank you very much everyone.
Here's a new song about the life I've led,
travelling all around Australia.
I've been very privileged to have the
opportunity of doing that over the years.
A lot of people dream of retirement and doing that.
But when I'm out there,
it's a life that'll do me.
And that's what this song's all about.
That'll do me! Here we go.
