If I Had Half The Sense (A Fool Was Born With)

(album: The Legendary Lefty Frizzell - 1973)

If I had half the sense a fool was born with
I wouldn't let my pride keep hanging on
To put up with the things you come up with
I'd pick what's left of me and move along

Knowing just how much you liked to hurt me
Don't mean I've got to stand it every day
If I had half the sense a fool was born with
I'd pack my bags and I'd be on my way

But I guess I'm twice as dumb
As a biggest fool every morn
'Cause even a fool leaves home
When he knows the love is gone

If I had half the sense a fool was born with
I'd leave my pride around
And cover me some ground and find myself
To cry in another town

But I guess I'm twice as dumb
As a biggest fool every morn
'Cause even a fool leaves home
When he knows the love is gone

If I had half the sense a fool was born with
I'd leave my pride around
And cover me some ground and find myself
To cry in another town
