Lyrics:

You can tell a woman's crying
From the tears that she has shed
You can tell a man is lying
By the way he turns his head
And no matter how you tell it
No matter what you do
There ain't nothing
There's nothing you can tell a fool

You can tell a story
Stick to it all night long
You can tell a secret
But once you do it's gone
And no matter how you tell it
No matter what you do
There ain't nothing
There's nothing you can tell a fool

A fool will see
Just what he wants to see
I'm telling you
Take it from a fool like me
No matter how you tell it
No matter what you do
There ain't nothing
There's nothing you can tell a fool
