Old Fools, are the biggest fools of all,

Answer in a moment, every time you call,

Haunt the empty food courts, in the shopping mall,

How they stumble, when they fall, in love.

Old Fools when courtesy was king,

When women could expect respect,

When your wore your diamond ring so proud,  

When a man could say, I love you, right out loud. 

When a boy so handsome, and a girl so fair,

Would make together a pretty pair,

When it was impolite to stare,

Blowing Kisses, through sultry summer air,

Two straws through a soda,

Both of us could share,  uh huh.

Old Fools, are the biggest fools of all,

Answer in a moment, every time you call,

Haunt the empty food courts, in the shopping mall,

How they stumble, when they fall, in love.

Old Fool with the promises you keep,

When you drift softly, off to sleep,

So satisfied from the labors of the day,

When you once could say, I’m happy, today, uh huh.

I know that it really ain’t cool,

Like saluting the flag in the school,

Or saying grace before a meal,

Or stating  how you truly feel, uh huh.

But I can build a house,

I can catch a mouse and change a tire in the road,      

Start a campfire in the rain,  

So I guess I’ll still remain,

An old fool of experience and pain,

Cause old fools are the biggest fools of all.
