Betty Wright
Victim of a Foolish Heart
[Intro]
Hmm-hmm-hmm
Oh
Hmm-hmm

[Verse 1]
Your scars were still showing when I first met you, baby
From all the wrong she had done to you
And I came along and applied a little loving
Slowly but surely I brought you through

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Now she's back to rekindle that old flame
She's got a different angle, baby
But she's playing the same old game

[Chorus]
Baby, don't be a victim of a foolish heart
Don't let her lies get next to you, don't
Ooh, she's just trying to tear us apart (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
And she's trying to make me, to make me her victim too (Don't be a victim)
Ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]
Now I know she comes around here every time I leave
'Cause she knows she's still on your mind, on your mind, ooh
See, even a wise man jumps in misery somewhere down the line
But only a fool will jump the second time, hmm
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Our affair is growing stronger every day, oh
Don't let her come and steal our happiness away

[Chorus]
Baby, don't be a victim of a foolish heart
Don't let her lies get next to you, don't
Ooh, she's just trying to tear us apart (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
And she's trying to make me, to make me her victim too (Don't be a victim)

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh, yeah, yeah-eh, yeah-eh
Hmm

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Now she's back to rekindle that old flame
She's got a different angle, baby
But she's playing the same old game

[Chorus]
Baby, don't be a victim of a foolish heart
Don't let her lies get next to you, don't
Ooh, she's just trying to tear, tear us apart, oh (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
And she's trying to make me, ooh, to make me her victim too (Don't be a victim)
Her victim too, victim too
[Outro]
I'm not gonna let her make me
I'm not gonna let her uh
I'm not gonna let her make me
(I'm not gonna let her uh)
I'm not gonna let her make me
(I'm not gonna let her make me)
No, no
(I'm not gonna let her uh)
Don't be a victim
(I'm not gonna let her make me)
(I'm not gonna let her uh)
(I'm not gonna let her make me)
No, no, no, no, no
(I'm not gonna let her uh)
No, ooh
(I'm not gonna let her make me)
(I'm not gonna let her uh)
(I'm not gonna let her make me)
I'm not gonna let her make me, yeah-eh
(I'm not gonna let her uh)
(I'm not gonna let her make me)
(I'm not gonna let her uh)
Not gonna be her victim, yeah, oh-oh
(I'm not gonna let her make me)
(I'm not gonna let her uh)
(I'm not gonna let her make me)
(I'm not gonna let her uh)
Can't you see what she's doing to you, boy?
(I'm not gonna let her make me)
No, no, no
(I'm not gonna let her uh)
No, no, no, no, no, no
(I'm not gonna let her make me)
(I'm not gonna let her uh)
Don't be a victim
