Guy Clark Fools For Each Other Lyrics

Fools For Each Other Lyrics

Who walked out when the times got hard

When the truck broke down in the whole front yard

It wasn't me, it wasn't you

Who shot pool all night long

Wound up bettin' on the crack of dawn

That was you darlin', and that was me 



Chorus

And we are fools for each other, me and you

We are lovers, in fact, we've gone crazy out back

Like only fools for each other would do 



Now who gave up when the fire burned low

Who flew south when the wind blew cold

It wasn't me, it wasn't you

Who held on when the blues came down

Who took care when the tie was bound

That was you, darlin', and that was me 



Chorus 



Who took off when their heart got broke

Let the whole thing go up in smoke

It wasn't me and it wasn't you, oh no

And who showed up when the time was right

Laid a little mercy on a bad ol' night

That was you, darlin', and that was me 



Chorus twice
