I must have 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 I 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 You know I'd just tear out that page But then I fooled around and fell in love I fooled around and fell in love 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 I fooled around and fell in love I fooled around and fell in love I fooled around and fell in love I fooled around and fell in love I fooled around I fooled around I fooled around I fooled around and fell in love
