I must have been through about a million girls
I'd love 'em and I'd leave 'em alone
I didn't care how much they cried, no sir
Their tears left me cold as a stone

But then I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love

It used to be when I'd see a girl that I liked
I'd get out my book and write down her name
But when the grass got a little greener on the other sidе
I'd just tear out that page

But then I foolеd around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love

Free on my own, that's the way I used to be
But since I met you, baby, love's got a hold on me

But then I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I said, I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
