A Good Fool Is Hard To Find

(album: Cold Snap - 1986)

My baby came home last night and she looked at me real cool
She said, "Albert, you ain't nothing but a overgrown fool
I'm gonna leave you, gonna leave you behind"
I said "Baby, I'm gonna tell you, that a good fool is hard to find"

Now, baby, if you leave me, it would hurt me to my soul
I just can't understand why baby, any woman could be so cold
But a good fool, a good fool, is hard to find
Take a lesson from me, baby
A good fool is hard to find

The last time you left me, I didn't have much to lose
You left me with nothing woman
But a pair of thin-sole shoe
But a good fool, a good fool is hard to find
Take a lesson from me, baby
A good fool is hard to find

Now listen to me, baby, I think you should be told
When they made yo' daddy
Somebody went an broke the mold
A good fool, a good fool is hard to find
You take the lesson from me woman
A good fool is hard to find
