Fate Of A Fool Lyrics - In Session - J. J. Cale

(J.J. Cale) 

Spending my life in a cold hard bar-room 

Drinking that long black whisky down 

I play the guitar, for me it's a living 

Well, I know, just a hanging-around 

Dancing girls, oh, they drive me crazy 

All they want is a fancy name 

Don't you know is I might not make it 

That's the fate of a fool and a guitar man

Yeah, been down to the palace of pleasure 

Honky-tonk, where I come from 

Smoke's so thick I can't imagine 

Wine flows fast by the rule of a gun 

One of these mornings it'll come up Sunday 

I won't have a good time again 

That time ain't now, it's a whole new dream 

That's the fate of a fool and a guitar man

One more night, one more dollar 

One more song, can you do it again 

I don't know, I may not make it 

That's the fate of a fool and a guitar man 

That's the fate of a fool and a guitar man
