Lyrics

I've been criticized from my head to my feet
Got busted for trespassin' right down on a public street
Lookin' for a friend that didn't have none around
Laid my rap on Mother Goose, enough to turn me down
Don't know when the last time that I had some heavy food
Tryna be the good guy still, I'm breakin' every rule
Call for my baby, and my baby can't be found
It's a, it's, it's enough to get a good man down
It may seem impossible, but true
And it's just another day in the life of a fool
Why'd you tell me that you're gonna see me when you can?
The only time I see you, girl, is with another man
Told me you were coming in 'bout something to ten
Well, ten o'clock has come and gone and comin' back again
Still, I sit here waiting with the blues
And it's just another day in the life of a fool
I've been criticized from my head to my feet
Got busted for trespassin' right down on a public street
Lookin' for a friend that didn't have none around
Laid my rap on Mother Goose, enough to turn me down
