Boppin the Blues Lyrics
I used to play around with hearts that hastened at my call
But when I met that little girl I knew that I would fallPoor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huhShe played around and teased me with her carefree devil eyes
She'd hold me close and kiss me but her heart was full of liesPoor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huhShe told me how she cared for me and that we'd never part
And so for the very first time I gave away my heartPoor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huhThe next day she was gone and I knew she'd lied to me
She left me with a broken heart and won her victoryPoor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huhI'd played this game with other hearts but I never thought I'd see
The day that someone else would play love's foolish game with mePoor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh
