I Fooled You, Didn't I? - Candi Staton

You always imagined

While you were out there playing

Come rain or come shine

I’d be there for you all the time

You always kept me crying

You just wouldn’t stop lying

I know in your wildest dreams

You never though I was smart enough to split the scene

Ooh, but

Didn’t I fool you

Honey, I fooled you

I fooled you good

Honey, I fooled you

I did everything I could, but you misunderstand

You took my kindness for weakness

Some of your actions left me speechless

Oh, you must have been so surprised

The day you came to realize

You could never find your way home

Cause you thought I was there all alone

Ooh, but

Didn’t I fool you

I fooled you

I fooled you

Yes, honey, I fooled you

Hey, hey, I fooled you

I fooled you, I fooled you

You came home one day, yea, and everything was gone

I fooled you, yes I fooled you

I fooled you, I fooled you

I was playing you all along

I knew everything you did

Didn’t I fool you, didn’t I…
