Fool Me Once Lyrics

When I was a young man, just gotten out I didn't know what this world was all about I was lied to, I was cheated, I played all kinds of fools It didn't take me long to learn the rules
Fool me once, shame on you Fool me twice, shame on me Fool me once, shame on you Fool me twice, shame on me
Lady swore she loved me, loved through and through And then my pal said, she said she loved him, too And the milkman and the postman and in a dream I saw her with the local football team
Fool me once, shame on you Fool me twice, shame on me
Fool me once, do me bad as you can do Shame on you, shame on you Fool me twice, I'll be as mad as I can be Shame on me, shame on me
Banker took my money bought him a stake The banker swore that one day we'd both feel great Then the 80's turned to the 90's and my money can't be found Banker's on a long trip out of town
Fool me once, do me bad as you can do Shame on you, shame on you Fool me twice, I'll be as mad as I can be Shame on me, shame on me
Fool me once, do me bad as you can do Shame on you, shame on you Fool me twice, I'll be as mad as I can be Shame on me, shame on me
Fool me once, do me bad as you can do Shame on you, shame on you Fool me twice, I'll be as mad as I can be Shame on me, shame on me
