Chip Taylor Sometimes i act just like a fool Sometimes I act just like a fool Outside my world I have few rules I mix some hard words with some strong lines With the memories of the hard times With the intention of makin' me somethin better - then what I am Sometimes I act just like a clown Build up some dream to knock it down I say forever, I say never, I say please let's get back together With the intention of makin' me somethin' better - then what I am Who am I sorry to - who am I sorry for Who will make the difference when I close the door - once again Sometimes I act just like a kid Outlaw Billy and the way he did I want what I want, when I want it - I'll take any chance just to get it With the intention of makin' me somethin' better - then the fool I am
