14 year old Kayla Michelle sings the Jo Dee Messina / Dottie West song "A Lesson in Leavin'" (" Fool Hearted Man "). Visit my channel for many more country songs!

Lesson in Leavin' lyrics :

Somebody's gonna give you
A lesson in leavin'
Somebody's gonna give you back
What you've been givin'
And I hope that I'm around
To watch 'em knock you down
It's like you to love 'em and leave 'em
Just like you loved me and left me
It's like you to do that sort of thing
Over and over again
You're a fool hearted man

I hear you've been askin' about me
From some of my friends
Well, you'd better believe
I'm not goin' through that again
You're the kind of man
A woman thinks she can change
Oh, but the only thing changin'
Is my way of thinkin'
And I'm thinkin' that maybe someday

Somebody's gonna give you
A lesson in losin'
Somebody's gonna do to you
What you've been doin'
And I hope that I'm around
To watch 'em knock you down
Somebody's gonna give you
A lesson in hurtin'
Somebody's gonna leave you
With your fire burnin'
And no way to put it out
Baby, there ain't no doubt
You're a fool hearted man

Yeah, you're the kind of man
A woman thinks she can change
But the only thing changin'
Is my way of thinkin'
And I'm thinkin' that maybe someday

Somebody's gonna give you
A lesson in leavin'
Somebody's gonna give you back
What you've been givin'
And I hope that I'm around
To watch 'em knock you down
It's like you to love 'em and leave 'em
Just like you loved me and left me
It's like you to do that sort of thing
Over and over again
You're a fool-hearted man

Somebody's gonna give you
A lesson in leavin'
Somebody's gonna give you back
What you've been givin'
And I hope that I'm around
To watch 'em knock you down
It's like you to love 'em and leave 'em
Just like you loved me and left me
It's like you to do that sort of thing
Over and over again
You're a fool-hearted man

Oh, a fool-hearted man
Oh, whoa
Oh, a fool-hearted man

  • @cowgirlup1395 NEVER HEARD THE SONG????? REALLY?

  • you have such control, i reallly like your voice! its really unique!(:

  • Nice job :) You're really talented!

  • I think you are better than average for your age. Keep singing & listening to yourself, & keep your ego in check. Generally speaking, a person is his own worst critic, so it should really help you improve as your voice matures. I applaud your bravery to sing in front of all of those people!

  • Oka so i lik that u are having fun n doin ur thang but ..... i think it was only oka .. To me a lil bit u kinda sound lik a boy but thats just my opionion otha ppl seem to lik but i just think it oka n btw i dnt think u should do country music .. lik u should do sum else

    love,

  • You did really good.

  • @MyJustified I am with you on people need to remember her and honor her somehow. I went through a country music roadshow stands a few days ago when Hank Williams Jr came through my town on the campaign trail and several classic country stars were mentioned and Dottie was not honored anywhere. I acutally soon am going to write a letter of complaint to someone at the Opry or somewhere. Its blant disrespect and thats probaly why people think this is Des song and not Dotties.

  • @mattfrye1 Yea i have that album too, it was dottie west's no1 hit

  • @MyJustified Exactly! Not three months ago someone argued me that Jo wrote and recorded this song. My grandmother has the album Special Delivery from 1979 with Lesson in leaving on its track list.

  • very good job sweety.....i love singing this song at karoke, and i gotta say ive heard many ppl sing it....and u did really great!!
