Cover version. Ricky's first #1 hit, released July 1958.
Words and music by Sharon Sheeley
I used to play around with hearts that hastened at my call
But when I met that little girl, I knew that I would fall
Poor little fool
Oh yeah, I was a fool, uh-huh
[uh-huh, poor little fool, I was a fool, oh yeah]
She'd play around and tease me with her carefree devil eyes
She'd hold me close and kiss me, but her heart was full of lies
Poor little fool
Oh yeah, I was a fool, uh-huh
[uh-huh, poor little fool, I was a fool, oh yeah]
She told how she cared for me, that we'd never part
And so for the very first time I gave away my heart
Poor little fool
Oh yeah, I was a fool, uh-huh
[uh-huh, poor little fool, I was a fool, oh yeah]
The next day she was gone and I knew she lied to me
She left me with a broken heart, won her victory
Poor little fool
Oh yeah, I was a fool, uh-huh
[uh-huh, poor little fool, I was a fool, oh yeah]
Well I played this game with other hearts, but I never thought I'd see
The day when someone else would play love's foolish game with me
Poor little fool
Oh yeah, I was a fool, uh-huh
[uh-huh, poor little fool, I was a fool, oh yeah]
Poor little fool
Oh yeah, I was a fool, uh-huh
[uh-huh, poor little fool, little fool]

  • I will be 55 years old in a few more days. I have a good memory and I can still remember my older uncle playing Ricky Nelson even though my parent's didn't approve. What I am doing with Pequinito's good work here is archiving these old quality songs. Songs when the singers had more talent and style than the screeching of today.

  • I'm 54 and played this record over and over. Yuo not bad just need a little more fire in your voice and make it sound more sexy. This what Ricky was all about chick would die for him. Dave

  • Cool, Pequinito it is then :)

  • Pequinito is fine, it means little one in Spanish :)
