The Bigger The Fool (The Harder The Fall)

Her long legs looked like trouble

As she sashayed through the door

And my mind flashed a warning sign

That I chose to ignore

For the prize I thought that I could win

The risk seemed mighty small

The bigger the fool, the harder the fall

I fell in love in the heat of passion

Oh, passion has its price

Under all that beauty

Beat a heart that was made of ice

God knows as far as I could see, she didn't have a flaw

But the bigger the fool the harder the fall

I said a woman to keep

The softer the skin

Sweeter the love

The more bitter the end

Well, one lesson I've learned that applies to all

The bigger the fool, the harder the fall

♪

One day she was lovin' me

The next day she was gone

And I became another verse

To a lonesome heartbreak song

Now that I've learned to face the truth

The words stick in my craw

Well, the bigger the fool the harder the fall

I said a woman to keep

The softer the skin

Sweeter the love

The more bitter the end

Well, one lesson I've learned that applies to all

The bigger the fool, the harder the fall

The bigger the fool, the harder the fall
