Don't take me for a fool 
 Because I'm not the foolish kind 
 Well if you had a sledge hammer 
 You still couldn't break my mind 
 Well if I'm honest with myself baby 
 I've gotta say 
 That you've got something about you 
 But please don't think for a minute 
 Lady 
 I couldn't get along fine without you 
 [bad word] 

 In my life 
 Oh yeah 
 She was in my life 
 And now she's out of my life 
 Nothing but strife 
 So I don't mind 

 Don't take me for a fool 
 Because I'm not that kind of man 
 There [bad word] we try to follow 
 But I guess you would not understand 
 Well if I'm honest with myself baby 
 I've gotta say 
 That you've got something about you 
 But please don't think for a minute 
 Lady 
 I couldn't get along fine without you 
 [bad word] 

 Everything has to end 
 I guess this was no exception 
 We were gonna have to break connection
