Days of Old

Way back yonder in the days of old

The men was workin? but not savin? any dough

Then came a woman lookin? real cool

She said to herself, "Now, that? s my fool"

I? m gonna ball tonight

I? m gonna ball tonight

Well, you can? t break the rule

Because every man is some woman? s fool

Met a girl on the avenue

She was shy and I was blue

Like a teacher and a student in the school

Looked at me and said, "You? re my fool"

Gonna ball tonight

We? re gonna ball tonight

Man I can? t break a rule

'Cause every man is some woman? s fool

Way back yonder in the days of old

The men was workin? but not savin? any dough

Then came a woman lookin? real cool

She said to herself, "Now, that? s my fool"

I? m gonna ball tonight

I? m gonna ball tonight

Well, you can? t break the rule

Because every man is some woman? s fool

I? m gonna ball tonight

We? re gonna ball tonight

We? re gonna ball tonight

We? re gonna ball tonight

Well, I can? t break the rule

Because every man is some woman? s fool
