Cover version. Ricky's first
#1 hit, released July 1958.

I used to play around with
hearts that hastened at my
call
But when I met that little
girl, I knew that I would
fall
Poor little fool
Oh yeah, I was a fool, uh-huh
[uh-huh, poor little fool, I
was a fool, oh yeah]
She'd play around and tease me
with her carefree devil eyes
She'd hold me close and kiss
me, but her heart was full of
lies
Poor little fool
Oh yeah, I was a fool, uh-huh
[uh-huh, poor little fool, I
was a fool, oh yeah]
She told how she cared for me,
that we'd never part
And so for the very first time
I gave away my heart
Poor little fool
Oh yeah, I was a fool, uh-huh
[uh-huh, poor little fool, I
was a fool, oh yeah]
The next day she was gone and
I knew she lied to me
She left me with a broken
heart, won her victory
Poor little fool
Oh yeah, I was a fool, uh-huh
[uh-huh, poor little fool, I
was a fool, oh yeah]
Well I played this game with
other hearts, but I never
thought I'd see
The day when someone else
would play love's foolish game
with me
Poor little fool
Oh yeah, I was a fool, uh-huh
[uh-huh, poor little fool, I
was a fool, oh yeah]
Poor little fool
Oh yeah, I was a fool, uh-huh
[uh-huh, poor little fool,
little fool]
