The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Who walked out when the times got hard
When the truck broke down in the whole front yard
It wasn't me it wasn't you
Who shot pool all night long wound up bettin' on the crack of dawn
That was you darlin' and that was me
And we are fools for each other me and you
We are lovers in fact we've gone crazy out back
Like only fools for each other would do
Now who gave up when the fire burned low
Who flew south when the wind blew cold
It wasn't me it wasn't you
Who held on when the blues came down
Who took care when the tie was bound
That was you darlin' and that was me
And we are fools for each other me and you
We are lovers in fact we've gone crazy out back
Like only fools for each other can do
Now who took off when their heart got broke
Let the whole thing go up in smoke
It wasn't me and it wasn't you oh no
And who showed up when the time was right
Laid a little mercy on a bad ol' night
That was you darlin' and that was me
And we are fools for each other me and you
We are lovers in fact we've gone crazy out back
Like only fools for each other would do
We are lovers in fact we've gone crazy out back
Like only fools for each other would do
