Find 'em, fool 'em and forget 'em

People let me tell you 'bout my father
He was known as the meanest, baddest love maker in town
He'd a reputation for jivin all the women
And for break their your hearts, leaving all crying

And he told me "Son, let me give you some advice
You gotta remember this for the rest your life"
He told me to find 'em, fool 'em, and forget 'em
Remember, that fool East!
Find 'em, fool 'em, and forget 'em
Yeah yeah yeah

But I didn't listen to what my father told me
All that he'd gave, gave my heart to you girl
You walked on me, misused me
And finally broke my heart in two

The way you treated me, wouldn't even treat a dog
Didn't even show, show me no mercy at all
I wish I had found you (found ya)
Fool you (fool ya)
And forgot you (forgot ya)
Like my father said
Yeah yeah yeah

I wish I'd found you (found ya)
Fool you (fool ya)
And forgot you (forgot ya)
Yeah yeah yeah
I wish I'd found you (found ya)
Fool you (fool ya)
And forgot you (forgot ya)
Yeah yeah yeah

I wish I'd found (found ya)
Fool (fool ya)
Fool ya (forgot ya)
Yeah yeah yeah
So jivin to find 'em, fool 'em ...
