Foolish Man Lyrics

Oh foolish man

What have you done

Oh foolish man

They left you one by one

And now you travel on

Moving slowly like a pawn

You wonder how the winners won

Oh tired man

How dare you pray

Oh tired man

Have you so little left to say

Now you travel on

And what you've come upon

Is heavy like a million billion tons

I was just like you

I was a big fool too

Oh foolish man

Heard the things that you said

It's a foolish plan

Try to fight the copperhead

A careless calculation

With a crooked deck of cards

A snake that's in your own back yard

I never really knew you

If I was you

I'd try to change my point of view

I might even change my name

Not keep it quite the same

That's if I were you

That's what I'd do

I was just like you

I was a big fool too

Oh foolish man

What have I done

Oh foolish man

Is this what I've become

I'm standing in the shade

I'm melting in the rain

I'm a shadow looking for the sun

A shadow just waiting for the sun
