Sometimes a man and a woman
spends 30 or 40 years together,
and they don't belong together.
Then one day, one of them tries to leave,
but in a most peculiar way.
And on that day you'll be grieving,
grieve on woman I don't mind
Look out in the backyard, mama,
cause I'm leaving you real soon
Gonna fly me up to heaven,
You're nothing but an old fool,
an d that's all you'll ever be
You're nothing but an old fool,
you know you'll never leave me
So stop your silly playin'
It's time you settle down
And hear me when I'm sayin'
You'll never get that damn
Old woman, are you cookin'?
Cause I'm almost ten feet high,
Cause I'll never eat that pie
Might even touch the moon
I'm leavin' in my big red balloon
You're nothing but an old fool
And that's all you'll ever be
You're nothing but an old fool
You know you'll never leave me
So stop this silly playin'
It's time you settle down
You better hear me when I'm sayin'
You'll never get that damn
I was born this afternoon,
You're nothing but an old fool,
an d that's all you'll ever be
Now you're nothing but an old fool,
you know you'll never need me
So come on and stop your silly playin'
It's time you settle down
And hear me when I'm sayin'
You'll never get that damn
You'll never get that damn
I said you won't get that off the ground
What are you doing up there?
Bring that damn thing back down here
