Just Like A Fool

Lyrics: Jerry Leiber
Music: Mike Stoller

In a New Riders setlist for 14 May 1969 (see here). The Owsley Foundation apparently has a tape, but that hasn't been circulated or released. It's a guess that it's a cover of the Coasters' song with that title: it's possible it's a Dawson original.

Just like a fool I fell for you
Just like a fool I thought you'd be true
But now you're gone, and the blues are treating me so cruel
Yes I'm paying 'cause I acted like a fool

Just like a fool I begged you to stay
Just like a fool I cried night and day
But soon you'll see a change in me
The chains of love are broken and now I'm free
And I won't be your fool any more

Just like a fool I begged you to stay
Just like a fool I cried night and day
But soon you'll see a change in me
The chains of love are broken and now I'm free
And I won't be your fool any more
