If he hadn't come running
sometimes I'm very hard, too strong
so he could be here in a minute

so quick, I couldn't catch up

Don't count on me, don't you count on me

yes, you better believe

He would like to travel in hard speed

and doesn't know the road that well
all the sorting out wouldn't that please
and would you leave me in your trail


Don't count on me, don't you count on me
yes, you better believe


[Chorus:]
He's such a fool, ruining it all

he's such a fool, ruining it all
such a fool working too hard
begging for more

He's such a fool, ruining it all
he's such a fool, push on some more
Just a fool working too hard

begging for more

Maybe everything is perfectly clear

I'm so tired of walking
We've got a thing it's supposed to be shared
If I sit and he just stands talking


Don't count on me, don't you count on me
yes, you better believe


[Chorus]
I live in his smile

and his favourite shirt
I bring his good name hey
down to the dirt


Don't count on me, don't you count on me
yes, you better believe


[Chorus]
