Used to be that I would gladly walk the line And never question whether it was worth my time But ask me now and I'm bound to refuse I used to be, used to be your fool Used to be afraid of where you'd turn your eyes And only when you slept at night would I close mine But now I have a different point of view I used to be, used to be your fool ♪ Used to be I only played the songs you wrote Well I knew every single little word by rote But these days I am singing a new tune I used to be, used to be your fool
