(Riley B. King and Jules Bihari)
|
Way back yonder in the days of old,
|
The men was working but not saving any dough.
|
Then came a woman looking real cool.
|
She said to herself, "Now that's my fool."
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I'm gonna ball tonight.
|
I'm gonna ball tonight.
|
Well, I can't break the rule because
|
Every man is some woman's fool.
|
|
Met a girl on the avenue,
|
She was shy and I was blue,
|
Like a teacher and a student in school,
|
Looked at me and said, "You're my fool."
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Repeat First Verse]
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
We're gonna ball tonight.
|
We're gonna ball tonight.
|
We're gonna ball tonight.
|
We're gonna ball tonight.
|
Well I can't break the rule because
|
Every man is some woman's fool.
