"Call Me A Fool" lyrics - VALERIE JUNE

[Intro:]
Call me a fool
Call me a fool
A heart forlorn
A heart that's scorned
A new love born

[Verse 1: Valerie June, Carla Thomas]
Thought I had it under control, yeah (thought I had it under control, yeah)
But it shook me, gripped me, grabbed my soul, yeah (grabbed my soul, yeah)
Heard it knocking pound on the door, yeah (oh)
When I knew I had to let it go
Don't you know I wish that I could help it
Don't you know I wish that I could forget
But this new love is so strong that
But it's a power keeps me holding on (keeps me holding on)

[Chorus:]
Yeah they call me a fool
Darlin' they call me a fool
For your love baby
And I'll be a fool any time
I'll be a fool any time, any time for loving you

I've been wishing things had been different
But I guess the cards, they fall the way they're meant
Win or lose or draw you play the hand you're sent
Beggar, Borrower, Given, Taken, Lent
I've been drinking, staying drunk all day
Got me creeping, but it's not late at night
Got my life twisted, turned it upside down
Just a fool to hang around

[Chorus:]
So they call me a fool
Call me a fool
For your love baby
And I'll be a fool any time
I'll be a fool any time, any time for loving you
So you can call me a fool
Call me a fool
For your love baby
And I'll be a fool any time
I'll be a fool any time, any time for loving you

[Bridge:]
Da di da di da da
Da di da di da da
Da di da di da da
Da di da da
Da di da da

[Chorus:]
So you can call me a fool
Call me a fool
For your love baby
And I'll be a fool any time
I'll be a fool any time, any time for loving you

[Outro:]
Thought I had it under control, yeah
