Well gather around me people
And hold your glasses high
And drink to a fool, a crazy fool
Who told his baby goodbye

That too late he's found that he loves her
So much he wants to die
And drink to a fool, a crazy fool
Who told his baby goodbye

He needs her, oh he needs her so
And he wonders why he let her go

She's found a new lovin' buddy
Ah he's a lucky guy
Oh drink to a fool, 'cause I'm that fool
And I told my baby goodbye

Oh he needs her, don't you know he needs her so
And he wonders why he let her go

She's found, oh, she found a new lovin' buddy
Now he's a lucky guy
Ooh drink to a fool, oh I'm that fool
And I told my baby goodbye
Ooh and I told, I told my baby goodbye
Yeah, well I told, I told my baby goodbye
Yeah, well I told, I told my baby goodbye
