Days Of Old

Way back yonder in the days of old,
The men was working but not saving any dough.
Then came a woman looking real cool.
She said to herself, 'Now that's my fool.'
* I'm gonna ball tonight.
I'm gonna ball tonight.
Well, I can't break the rule because
Every man is some woman's fool.
Met a girl on the avenue,
She was shy and I was blue,
Like a teacher and a student in school,
Looked at me and said, 'You're my fool.'
* Repeat
Way back yonder in the days of old,

We're gonna ball tonight.
We're gonna ball tonight.
We're gonna ball tonight.
We're gonna ball tonight.
Well I can't break the rule because
Every man is some woman's fool.
