Fooled Around and Fell In Love

Written by Mundo Earwood

Performed by Elvin Bishop

I must've been through about a million girls
I'd love 'em, and I'd leave 'em alone
I didn't care how much they cried, no sir
Their tears left me cold as a stone

But then I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
Fooled around and fell in love

It used to be when I'd see a girl that I liked
I'd get out my book and write down her name
But when the grass got a little greener on the other side
I'd just tear out that page

But then I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love, since I met you, baby
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love

Free on my own, that's the way I used to be
But since I met you baby, love's got a hold on me
(Fooled around and fell in love) whoo, it's got a hold on me now, yeah
(Fooled around and fell in love) I can't let go of you, baby
(Fooled around and fell in love) I can't stop loving you now
(Fooled around and fell in love) hey, 'cause I fooled around

I fooled around (fooled around)
I fooled around (fooled around)
I fooled around (fooled around)

Fooled around, fooled around, yes, I did
(Fooled around) I fooled around
(Fooled around) oh, I fooled

I fooled around, I fell in love
(Fooled around) hey-hey
