(W. E. Bruce)
I was born a king of fools
Most people think I'm just a playboy breaking rules
But they don't know that when it comes around to love
I always lose
That's why I call myself the king of fools
I was born never to care
But now I want a love that I can share
I've searched in vain for a love that would never be true
That's why I call myself the king of fools
CHORUS
King of fools, king of fools
That's why I call myself the king of fools
I was born without a good thought
Just to live fast, tell a lie and break a heart
I have broken many hearts and I've broken many rules
That's why I call myself the king of fools
I was born the king of fools
At any other game I never lose
But when it comes around to love that's when I realize
I was born the king of fools
CHORUS
