Standard (EADGBE)

Kickin' down the road

Feelin' mighty slowed

 With the likes of you

Gettin' mighty spaced

Never had a taste

 Of what you're goin' through

I can't bitch

Went from rags to riches

 Then to ragtime screamin' the blues

(chorus)

 I wanna know why

 Everybody's good intention

 Gotta make a fool outta me

 I wanna know why

 Everybody's good intentions

 Gotta make a fool

Gotta make a fool

 Try to make a fool outta me

Swing low

Sweet cherry-o

 When a strange love showed me the way

Ya see more

Can't keep a score

 When the whore's comin' on for the play

 I wanna know why

 Everybody's good intention

 Gotta make a fool outta me

 I wanna know why

 Everybody's good intentions

 Gotta make a fool

Gotta make a fool

 Try to make a fool outta me

E. poe, eatin' crow

 Wonder if he knowed that the Raven was mad

Time passed, and words lost the last

 Of the thing he ever had

 I wanna know why

 Everybody's good intention

 Gotta make a fool outta me

 I wanna know why

 Everybody's good intentions

 Gotta make a fool

Gotta make a fool

 Try to make a fool outta me

Oh, play rough

Can't get enough

 So the try to make a fool out of me

Lordy

Ain't foolin' me

Ya ain't ghoulin' me

Ain't foolin' me

You ain't ghoulin' me
