Lyrics
Gather
Around me, buddy
Raise your glasses high
And drink to a fool
A crazy fool
Who told his baby goodbye
Too late, he found he loved her
So much he wants to die
So drink to a fool, you crazy fool
Who told his baby goodbye
He needs her, he needs her so
He wonders why he let her go
She’s found, she’s found, she’s found
A new love buddy, he’s a lucky guy, oh
So drink to a fool, a crazy fool
Who told his baby goodbye
He needs her, he needs her so
He wonders why he let her go, oh, oh, oh
She’s found, she’s found, she’s found
A new love buddy, he’s a lucky guy, oh
So drink to a fool
Crazy fool
Who told his baby goodbye
Who told his baby goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye…
