If You Gotta Make a Fool of Somebody Aretha Franklin

[Verse 1]
If you've gotta make a fool of somebody
If you had to make a fool of someone
Tell me why did you hurt me
Because I'm the one that worries
Now, tell you I am the one who loves you truly

[Verse 2]
If you've gotta make a fool of somebody

Tell me why, why did you hurt me?
Because I, I was the one, the who loved him
Oh, oh, I, I was the one who cared

[Verse 3]
Daytime, nighttime, anytime at all
I'll rush to your side, anytime that you call
Just to be with you, darling, you know
Any place you go, how could you hurt me so?
You hurt me so, yeah, you hurt me so
Oh, hurt me so

Why, tell me why did you have to hurt me, yeah
Because I was the one, I was the one who loved you
Now, tell you that I was the one
I was the one standing by your side
I, I, I, I, I was the one, the one who really loved you, yeah
I was the one, the one who wiped your tears when you cried
Do you remember? I am the one
