Everybody told me what a fool I was

To fall in love with someone who would never be true

But someday I would wind up with the hopeless love

All alone be wilted and confused

So who'll be the first to say I told you so

Cause I'm alone like they all said I'd be

Who'll be the first to say I should have listened long ago

So who'll be the first to say I told you so

[ fiddle - steel ]

Filled with love so strong that ruled my heart and soul

Blinded by the lies you kept on tellin' to me

People saw the things you've done and let me know

Things a fool in love can never see

So who'll be the first...
