They say a fool is one who loves
When everything is lost
All hope is gone
He hangs on
No matter what it costs
His poor old heart
Won't let him call it quits
Well, I've tried the shoe on
And it fits
It fits like it was special made
For me and me alone
I think everyone in town
Is seeing me with it on
They sit and stare and whisper
"There he sits"
Yes, I've tried the shoe on
And it fits
I've heard of fools who even
Though they know it doesn't fair
They'd sold their pride to be beside
Someone who doesn't care
I guess the fool deserves
Just what he gets
Well, I've tried the shoe on
And it fits
It fits like it was special made
For me and me alone
I think everyone in town
Is seeing me with it on
They sit and stare and whisper
"There he sits"
Yes, I've tried the shoe on
And it fits
