Don't take me for a fool 

Because I'm not the foolish kind 

Well if you had a sledge hammer 

You still couldn't break my mind 

Well if I'm honest with myself baby 

I've gotta say 

That you've got something about you 

But please don't think for a minute 

Lady 

I couldn't get along fine without you 



[CHORUS]



In my life 

Oh yeah 

She was in my life 

And now she's out of my life 

Nothing but strife 

So I don't mind 



Don't take me for a fool 

Because I'm not that kind of man 

There are rules we try to follow 

But I guess you would not understand 

Well if I'm honest with myself baby 

I've gotta say 

That you've got something about you 

But please don't think for a minute 

Lady 

I couldn't get along fine without you 



[CHORUS]



Everything has to end 

I guess this was no exception 

We were gonna have to break connection 

[repeat]
