Eddy Arnold - You Fool Lyrics






Your walls are lines with pictures of your triumphs through the years
Your doors is bolted tight against all wordly want and fear
But you left your passion and your pain with your first love back in school
You fool, you fool

In your penthouse high from the dirty streets I swear you'll never find
The answers to the questions that muddy up your mind
For your window shades are drawn upon the wicked and the cruel
You fool, you fool

You give your share the charity without a second thought
And you are kind to animals for that's what you've been taught
But all your real emotion you proudly overrule
You fool, you fool

You've planned your life so carefully for society's delight
And still you can't quite understand why things just don't seem right
It's a love like fresh out homemade bread will sat aside to cool
You fool, you fool, you fool

    If you don't mind, I have another request from early 1970, if you happen to have it. Eddy Arnold's "Since December". It peaked at #73 in January 1970 and I have never heard the song. It isn't available on any of his CDs Thanks for all of your help..

    +Seahurst25 I'll see if I have it when I get back from my job this weekend :)

    I have the album that included this track and I just played it on my classic country radio show a few weeks ago.  Great underrated performance by one of the true greats.

    @Michael Reece I do love your album review site! Been checking that out for some time now.

    Thanks Wilbur, never heard Eddy sing this song before. I like it. He was one of the best back in his time. Have a great week end.

    Eddy freely admitted that he was not overly concerned about the "country" credentials of a song but only with it's commercial potential.  This seemed to be the rule of thumb that guided his choice of songs over the course of the 60's and 70's.  This pretty smooth upload is a good example of that and no-one can argue over Eddy's success as he is reckoned to have sold something like 85 million records during his stellar career.
