Sometimes a man and woman spend 10 or 20 years together,
and they don't belong together.
And then one day, one of them tries to leave,
and does, but in a most peculiar way.
Woman, one of these days I'm leaving,
And on that day you'll be grievin'
Look out in the backyard, mama
Cause I'm leavin' you real soon
Gonna fly me up to heaven
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 believe me
So stop your silly playin'
And hear me when I'm sayin'
You'll never get that damn
Cause I'm al most ten feet high,
might even touch the moon
I'm leavin' in my big red balloon
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 playing,
You better hear me when I'm saying,
you'll never get that damn thing off the ground.
You never gave me children,
Remember me too, I was born this afternoon I've got it all together,
You're nothing but an old fool,
and that's all you'll ever be
Now you're nothing but an old fool,
you know you'll never leave me
So stop your silly playing,
Don't hear me when I'm saying
You'll never get that damn
