Fate Of A Fool (j J Cale) Lyrics

Spent my life in a cold hard bar-room

 Drinking that long black whisky down

 I play the guitar, for me it's a living

 Well, I know, just a-hanging around

 Dancing girls, oh, they drive me crazy

 All they want is a fancy name

 Don't you know is I might not make it

 That's the fate of a fool and a guitar man

 

 Yeah, been down to the palace of pleasure

 Honky-tonk, where I come from

 Smoke's so thick I can't imagine

 Wine flows fast by the rule of a gun                 (?)

 One of these mornings it'll come up Sunday

 I won't have a good time again

 That time ain't now, it's a whole new dream

 That's the fate of a fool and a guitar man

 

 One more night, one more dollar

 One more song, can you do it again

 I don't know, I may not make it

 That's the fate of a fool and a guitar man

 That's the fate of a fool and a guitar man
