When I come home baby   And I've been workin' all night long   With my daughter on me knee   She says "Daddy, what's wrong?"   And she whisper in my ear so sweet   You know what she says? She says      Oh daddy you're a fool to cry   You're a fool to cry   It makes me wonder why      You know I got a woman   She lives in the poor part of town   And I go and see her sometimes   And we make love so fine   I put my hand on her shoulder   And she says "Tell me all your trouble"   You know she says      Oh daddy you're a fool to cry   You're a fool to cry   It makes me wonder why      My friends say to me sometime,    And I act like I don't understand   But they say      Oh daddy you're a fool to cry   You're a fool to cry   It makes me wonder why
