Johnny Winter - Be Careful With A Fool Lyrics






Man, be careful with a fool. you know, someday he may get smart
Man, be careful with a fool. you know, someday he may get smart
He will treat you so cool and chilly, till he hurt you to your heart

Yeah, you know

Hate to remember, oh, what a fool I used to be, ha, ha!
Man, I hate to remember how foolish I used to be
The way I used to love you, baby, how bad it's gonna be

You know, I used to cry 'bout you, baby, ha!
You know, I'd-a walk the streets a-late at night
Used to cry about ya, a-walk the streets, a-late at night

If you love me just a little bit, baby, why in the world don't you treat me right?

Ah, yeah
Oh, yeah
Yeah!
Yeah!
Ah!
Yeah, baby!

Uh, fin'lly over, baby, whoa, I believe this is the end, ah, ah, yeah, well!
Fin'lly over, baby, oh, I believe this-a is the end, ah
I want to tell you my baby, to forgive me for my sin

    Like, if you’re listening to this on a friday afternoon at work where you have nothing to do, just to sit smiling behind your desk because of this glorius music , and want to go home to plug-in your favorite guitar and play some blues...

  13. A.... B....

    He once came where I live and I didn't get to see him, this regret will haunt me for the rest of my existence, damn.

    A.... B....

    Same thing happen to me, and btw it was the last show he did of his life and he was dead the day just after the show. However he was not playing like he did at his prime, but I'll regret all my fking life too

    chris pucino Saw him in a town called Groningen just a couple of months before he died. Worst concert ever, but I did not care......there he was, my all time Johnny Winter in that cold Dutch town.

    c.... P....

    yeah, he was real bad there at the end. i guess he couldn't see it. the band should have told him.

    c.... P....

    sküll düggery he was pretty much forced to comeback by Paul. I couldn't bear to see him like this... I saw him throughout his better years starting in the late 60's... the guy really went through a lot... should never have comeback.

    c.... P....

    i saw him a couple of timse in the early 80's in small clubs. he was tight and loud.

  47. A.... C....

    hard blues "number one " Johnny forever in my mind !!

  48. L.... C....
