The Blue Shadows - The Fool Is The Last One To Know lyrics

(Billy Cowsill/Ralph Boden Johnson) Now I'm just a working man And I've done all that I can To keep you in your ribbons and your bows Talk gets around In a small country town Where the fool is the last one to know It takes a fool to do the things I do Have to be a fool, a fool like me To be so in love with you Have your parcels growing cold Is there someone that you hold Lights die out when you're alone Who's that so and so Darling who's your Romeo Oh the fool is the last one to know It takes a fool to do the things I do Have to be a fool, a fool like me To be so in love with you I overheard you on the phone You were whispering sweet and low Something that I'd never heard before Saying just what lovers say When two lovers talk that way Yes the fool is the last one to know It takes a fool to do the things I do Have to be a fool, a fool like me To be so in love with you Yeah sure talk gets around In a small country town Where the fool is the last one to know I guess the fool is the last one to know Yes, I'm the fool and I'm the last one to know
