Have another drink, smoke another cigarette
`Cause I can't find the answer yet
It's been a long time since comin'

And it's so hard, to keep from runnin'

It's all right for you to reach out

But baby, baby, baby don't you tear this heart out

I've been your fool for the last time

I swear to God there won't be another next time
When you hold out your hand you just gotta understand
I've been your fool


Thought I'd had about enough
To get over you and me

Then the barkeep dropped a coin
On a heartbreak melody
Ooh it came back, it all came back

Like a slap right across my face
Lord I know I can't let you go
But we can't go back to that same damn place


It's all right for you to reach out
But baby, baby, baby don't you tear this heart out


I've been your fool for the last time
I swear to God there won't be another next time...no,

no, no
When you hold out your hand you just gotta understand
I've been your fool

Girl I've been your fool, yes I have

It don't have to be so hard

But it ain't gonna come around easy, no not so easy
baby
If there has to be a heartbreak baby

It ain't gonna be mine...no

The next time around baby, when you find yourself in

need
When you hold out your hand you just gotta understand
I've been your fool for the last time baby, for the

last time
I swear to God...Lord, I swear there won't be another
next time

When you hold out your hand you just gotta understand
I've been your, been your fool for the last time
I swear to God there ain't gonna be no next time woman

When you hold out your hand you just got to, got to
understand
