Lyrics for I'm a Fool for You

Oh, I'm a fool for you I'm a fool for you If you want me to, baby I'll break some rules for you (Means I'm a fool for you, I'll be a tool for you) There ain't nothing, baby I wouldn't do for you, now listen at me I'd walk the burning desert sand Just to walk beside you and hold your little hand I'd make you a rainbow in the sky Just to master the facts of how they glitter in your eye I'm a fool for you, baby, I'm a fool for you If you want me, baby, I'll break all the rules for you (Means I'm a fool for you, I'll be a tool for you) There ain't nothing, baby, I wouldn't do for you (Maybe work two jobs Seven days and nights a week You can use me most any way, yours to do whatever you please) Yes, I'm a fool for you, I'm a fool for you It ain't nothing in this world I wouldn't do for you You can use me, you can accuse me (Use my heart for a stepping stone) Take my soul, baby, I'm yours to hold now (I'd cut myself right down to the bone) I'm a fool for you, baby I'm a fool for you I'm a fool for you, baby I'm a fool for you, yes I am, now
