George Jones - Big Fool of the Year lyrics

All the big fools in town got together Every hopeless lovin' heart I know was there We all sat around and told our own best story Then they made me the big fool of the year. Oh, they gave to me a little golden statue Of the torch that I carried for you, dear They said no one else could even come close to me And that I was the big fool of the year. I'll put mine up beside Any foolish love in town 'Cause there's none can hold a light To this torch I carried round. I can't say I'm to proud of the honor But then I guess I do deserve it, dear For to love you after all you've made me suffer Surely makes me the big fool of the year.
