The Waltzing Fool

The waltzing fool

He's got lights in his fingers

The waltzing fool

He just don't never say

The waltzing fool

He keeps his hands in his pockets

And waltzes the evening away

And it's a waltz to a woman

Who's lying beside him

It's a waltz to a face on the wall

When she's gone

It's a waltz to the rodeo

The damn thing it rides him

It's a waltz to a waltz

Now the waltzing fool

He just might be crazy

Because the waltzing fool

He keeps the moon in his car

And the waltzing fool

He says it's running

On waltzes and waltzes

And it's a waltz to a woman

Who's lying beside him

It's a waltz to a face on the wall

When she's gone

It's a waltz to the rodeo

The damn thing it rides him

It's a waltz to a waltz

Just a waltz to a waltz

Now the waltzing fool

They say he's been drinking

But the waltzing fool

He's just got mud on his shoes

And the waltzing fool

He knows they're all thinking

He's only an old waltzing fool

But the waltzing fool

He's got lights in his fingers

The waltzing fool

He just don't never say

The waltzing fool

He keeps his hands in his pockets

And waltzes the evening away

The waltzing fool

His hands in his pockets

He's waltzing the evening away
