A Good Fool Is Hard To Find

A Good Fool Is Hard To Find
Albert Collins
(Houston, Shackleford)
Cold Snap Album

My baby came home last night
And she looked at me real cool
She said, "Albert, you ain't nothin' but a overgrown fool
I'm gonna leave you, gonna leave you behind."
I said
" Baby I'm gonna tell you, that a good fool is hard to find."

Now, baby if you leave me, it would hurt me to my soul
I just can't understand why baby, any woman could be so cold
But a good fool, a good fool, is hard to find
Take a lesson from me baby
A good fool is hard to find

The last time you left me, I didn't have much to lose
You left me with nothin' woman
But a pair of thin-sole shoe
But a good fool, a good fool is hard to find
Take a lesson from me baby
A good fool is hard to find

Now listen to me baby, I think you should be told
When they made yo' daddy
Somebody went an broke the mold
A good fool, a good fool is hard to find
You take the lesson from me woman
A good fool is hard to find
