Oh, so long baby!
See you around, oh, see you around!
Promise is a comfort to a fool.
Promise is a comfort to a fool.
I remember what my mama used to say,
She said: "Son don't go astray."
Don't let her pretty face get to your head,
'Cause she'll rob you and leave town, ooh.
Promise is a comfort to a fool.
Promise is a comfort to a fool.
She'll promise you diamonds and gold rings,
True she like how you do your thing.
She'll treat you like a puppet on a string,
Pull in the string and let swing, ooh.
Promise is a comfort to a fool.
Promise is a comfort to a fool.
Ooh, well, well!
Oh.. oh, well.
Girl go your way and leave me alone,
Get someone you can push around.
I ain't gonna be nobody's clown,
So you better get out of town.
'Cause, promise is a comfort to a fool.
I ain't gonna be no daddy's fool
Promise is a comfort to a fool, oh.
Promise is a comfort to.. well.
