I must have been through about a million girls
I love em and I leave em alone
I didn't care, how they cried no sir
Their tears left me cold as a stone

But then I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love

It used to be when I see a girl that I like
I'd get out my book, and write down her name
But when the past got a little greener on the other side
I just tear out that page

But then I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love

(instrumental)

Free on my own, that's the way I used to be
But since I met you baby, love got ahold of me

Fooled around and fell in love (whoo, its got ahold of me now, yeah)
Fooled around and fell in love (aaaahh, I can hold you baby)
Fooled around and fell in love (I can't stop loving you now
Fooled around and fell in love (well, cause I fooled around, I fooled around)
Fooled around and fell in love
