Used to be that I would gladly walk the line
And never question whether it was worth my time
But ask me now and I'm bound to refuse
I used to be, used to be your fool

Used to be afraid of where you'd turn your eyes
And only when you slept at night would I close mine
But now I have a different point of view
I used to be, used to be your fool

Used to be I only played the songs you wrote
Well I knew every single little word by rote
But these days I am singing a new tune
I used to be, used to be your fool
