Jitters

Jitters - Last Of The Red Hot Fools lyrics

I been a fool played it dumb

Shoulda played it smart

Used my head but not my heart

Musta been crazy played it hot

I shoulda played it cool

Now I'm just the last of the red hot fools

(Whoa)

Everybody said you were an easy mark

It was a cinch to catch your eye

Just a matter of getting your attention

Acting suggestive

And not being coy and shy

I been a fool played it dumb

Shoulda played it smart

Used my head but not my heart

Musta been crazy played it hot

I shoulda played it cool

Now I'm just the last of the red hot fools

(Yeah)

When I was alone and I would think of you

I always knew what I would say

But whenever I'd see you I'd shiver

And say something silly

Or just look the other way

And instead of even trying

I just shut up

And looked for an excuse to say good-bye

I been a fool played it dumb

Shoulda played it smart

Used my head but not my heart

Musta been crazy played it hot

I shoulda played it cool

Now I'm just the last of the red hot fools

(Oh yeah)

I didn't understand what was wrong with me

I didn't understand what was making me shy

I knew I had to choose

I didn't want to lose

But how can I win when I'm too scared to try

(Oh oh)

All my friends say I should call you up

You'd be sure to see the light

Just a matter of picking up the phone book

looking up the number

and calling you up that night

But, instead of trying harder

I just jumped up and hung up the receiver when you said 'Hi'

I been a fool played it dumb

Shoulda played it smart

Used my head but not my heart

(I) Musta been crazy played it hot

I shoulda played it cool

Now I'm just the last of the red hot f-f-fools

Played it dumb

Shoulda played it smart

Used my head but not my heart

(I) Musta been crazy played it hot

I shoulda played it cool

Now I'm just the last of the red hot fools

Now I'm just the last of the red hot fools

Now I'm just the last of the red hot fools

Now I'm just the last of the red hot fools
