Anderson, Lynn - Fool Me Lyrics






Ain't it kinda funny they say a fool never learns play with fire and it always burns
Don't it kinda get you down you treat me worse than before
But I keep comin' back for more
'Cause you're a deceiver and I'm a believer it's just a game I know
But I can't seem to let go

So fool me, fool me one more time
You can fake just for old time's sake
Look in my eyes, tell me those lies
And just fool me, fool me one more time

Don't it make you wonder why I keep playing make believe
Do you really think I'm that naive
Don't it make you sad I'm actin' like I got it made even though it's just a masquerade
'Cause you're a deceiver and I'm a believer it's just a game I know
But I can't seem to let go

So fool me, fool me one more time
You can fake just for old time's sake
Look in my eyes, tell me those lies
And just fool me, fool me one more time

Fool me, fool me one more time
You can fake just for old time's sake
Look in my eyes, tell me those lies
And just fool me, fool me one more time
Come on, fool me one more time, fool me one more time
Honey, fool me one more time, fool me one more time

Anderson, Lynn Fool Me Comments
  1. T.... H....

    Back when music was, well, music!

  2. S.... B....

    I can't get enough of this song , I play it over and over in my truck , it takes me back with so many memories .....

  3. M.... L....

    Thanks jack this is another awesome song

  4. s.... ....

    On this day in 1972 {May 2nd} Lynn Anderson appeared as a guest on the Philadelphia-based syndicated television program 'The Mike Douglas Show'...
    Nowhere on the internet can I find it she performed a song on the show; but during the calendar year of 1972 she had three huge hits on Billboard's Hot Country Singles chart; "Cry" {at #3}, "Listen to a Country Song" {at #4}, and "Fool Me" {at #4}...
    Between 1966 and 1991 she had sixty records on the Hot Country Singles chart; seventeen made the Top 10 with five* reaching #1; "Rose Garden" {1970}, "You're My Man" {1971}, "How Can I Unlove You" {1971}, "Keep Me In Mind" {1973}, and "What A Man My Man Is" {1974}...
    Lynn Rene Anderson passed away at the young age of 67 on July 30th, 2015...
    May she R.I.P.
    * She just missed having a sixth #1 record when "That's A No No" peaked at #2 in 1969...

    Came along at the same time as some of the best women country singers. Loretta, Patsy, Dolly, Kitty, Wanda, and Tammy. Some of the best songs for any generation from these ladies.

  6. M.... H....

    I always thought it was strange that this song did not make it onto her very premature "Greatest Hits" album from 1972, which featured at least three tracks that were not released as singles but were just album filler. "Fool Me" had been on the "Listen To A Country Song" album but did make it onto the "Greatest Hits" album while "Listen To A Country Song" did....what an oversight on Columbia's part! "Fool Me" was one of Anderson's hits that she rarely performed live for whatever reason even though it had been a hit with heavy radio play at the time. I still feel that "Fool Me" was one of her best songs after "Rose Garden".

    M.... H....

    Good point. I agree.

    Just for comparison, Joe South produced this single on "Fool Me" for my long time friend and high school classmate Norma Shearer in 1969. Norma's version was more like the original version as written and recorded by Joe.  The 1972 version by Lynn Anderson was rearranged to sound as much like "Rose Garden" as possible as the producer, Lynn's husband Glenn Sutton, was trying to milk that sound for one more hit record.

    Doesn't sound a thing like Rose Garden, altho' the arrangement is different from Norma's. By the time "Fool Me" came out, Lynn already had TWO (2) #1 records after Rose Garden: You're My Man and How Can I Unlove You (the latter also written by South). "Fool Me" was several records post Rose Garden, so I don't think Glenn Sutton was trying for the "RG Sound". She had a slew of #1s and Top-10s.
