Ernest Tubb - There's No Fool Like A Young Fool lyrics

There's no fool like a young fool with wild and careless ways

Who forgets about tomorrow and lives just for today

If she could only realize the sorrow that's in store

She'd try behaving on for sights and honky tonk no more

It breaks my heart to see her drinking there with tavern lights a shining in her hair

She won't seem sweet sixteen tomorrow as today

There's no fool like a young fool who throws her life away

[ guitar ]

Now the dim lights and the drinking seems like fun I know

But she'll find out one morning that you reap just what you sowed

The sad part is she'll be alone once she starts to fall

There's no fool like a young fool who thinks she knows it all

It breaks my heart...
