John Prine - I Know One lyrics

When all your loves have ended

When all your friends have flown

Who'll be around to want you

When all your loves have gone

Only a fool would do it

After the way you've done

But how many fools would have you I know one

This fool keeps wonderin' why

He fell in love at all

But you might need this fool

Around in case you fall

After the party's over

And you've had your fill of fun

If you need a fool to forgive you I know one

You never know, you might be lonely

When all your loves have missed

It wouldn't hurt to keep an extra

Fool on your list.

After your heart's been broken

And you need a place to run

If you'll take a fool who loves you

I know one

I know one

I know one
