Fool on the Roof

Clark Guy

Now don’t let the moon catch a fool on your roof
That is some aggravation I’m gonna tell you the truth
He’ll rattle your dishes and he’ll run off your dogs
And he’ll be dancin’ till dawn in the light of it all

Fool on the roof, he’s just foolin’ with you
Laughin’ it off is ‘bout the best you can do
Fool on the roof, he will not take no checks
You’ve got to pay by the dance and that’s a natural fact

Fool on the roof, he will not cut you no slack
He make you, mama, make you go ‘round back
He’s hidin’ behind that big ol’ chinaberry tree
I know he’s there ‘cause he’s chunkin’ ‘em at me

Fool on the roof, he’s just foolin’ with you
Laughin’ it off is ‘bout the best you can do
Fool on the roof, he will not take no checks
You’ve got to pay by the dance and that’s a natural fact

Don’t mind me, baby, I got a fool on my roof
How many times have you used that excuse
Might be something you said or maybe somewhere you’ve been
With someone you shouldn’t and never will again

Fool on the roof, he’s just foolin’ with you
Laughin’ it off is ‘bout the best you can do
Fool on the roof, he will not take no checks
You’ve got to pay by the dance and that’s a natural fact

You better look out below there’s a fool on your roof
That is some aggravation I’m gonna tell you the truth
He’ll rattle your dishes and he’ll run off your dog
And he’ll be dancin’ till dawn in the light of it all
