James Brown — What Kind Of Fool Am I?

What kind of fool am I Who never fell in love It seems that I'm the only one That I've been thinking of Tell me, what kind of man is this? An empty shell A lonely cell in which An empty heart may dwell, mmm What kind of lips are these That lied with every kiss That whispered empty words of love That left me alone like this Why can't I fall in love Like any other man And maybe, maybe then I'll know what kind of fool I am Tell me, tell me, what kind of clown am I? What do I know of life? Why can't I cast away the mask of play And live my life? Why can't I fall in love 'Til I, 'til I don't, I don't, don't give a damn And maybe then I'll know What kind of fool, what kind of fool What kind of fool, baby, what kind of fool I am What kind of fool I am
