Fool's Paradise

My mama told me
A long time ago
She said: Son
You had better take it slow
'Cause you been drinkin' and gamblin'
Stayin' out all night
You just livin' in a fool’s paradise
My mama told me
My papa told me too
He said: Son
Fate is gonna catch up with you
If you keep drinkin' and gamblin'
Stayin' out all night
You just livin' in a fool’s paradise
Well, I have learned my lesson
Just like all fools I’ve met
The things I’ve seen in this old world
I will never forget
My mama told me
My papa said it right
He said: Son
You going to drop right out of sight
If you keep drinkin' and gamblin'
Stayin' out all night
You just livin' in a fool’s paradise
My mama told me
My papa said it right
He said: Son
You going to drop right out of sight
If you keep drinkin' and gamblin'
Stayin' out all night
You just livin' in a fool’s paradise
You just livin' in a fool’s paradise
