Rick Hall - Find 'Em, Fool 'Em, and Forget 'Em lyrics

[Verse 1] People, let me tell you 'bout my father He was known as the meanest, baddest lovemaker in town He had a reputation of getting 'round all the women For breaking their hearts, and leaving 'em all crying [Pre-Chorus] And he told me "son, let me give you some advice Gotta remember this for the rest of your life" [Chorus] He told me to find 'em, fool 'em, and forget 'em Remember the fullest Find 'em, fool 'em, and forget 'em, yeah [Verse 2] I didn't listen to what my father told me Already gave, gave my heart to you, girl You walked on it and misused it Finally broke my heart in two [Pre-Chorus] The way you treated me, wouldn't even treat a dog Didn't even show, show me no mercy at all [Chorus] I wish I had found you, fooled you, and forgot you Like my father said I wish I had found you, fooled you, and forgot you, yeah I wish I had found you, fooled you, and forgot you, yeah yeah I wish I had found you, fooled you, and forgot you, yeah
