Lyrics:

Now dont let the moon catch a fool on your roof
That is some aggravation Im gonna tell you the truth
Hell rattle your dishes and hell run off your dogs
And hell be dancin till dawn in the light of it all

Fool on the roof, hes just foolin with you
Laughin it off is bout the best you can do
Fool on the roof, he will not take no checks
Youve got to pay by the dance and thats a natural fact

Fool on the roof, he will not cut you no slack
He make you, mama, make you go round back
Hes hidin behind that big ol chinaberry tree
I know hes there cause hes chunkin em at me

Fool on the roof, hes just foolin with you
Laughin it off is bout the best you can do
Fool on the roof, he will not take no checks
Youve got to pay by the dance and thats a natural fact

Dont mind me, baby, I got a fool on my roof
How many times have you used that excuse
Might be something you said or maybe somewhere youve been
With someone you shouldnt and never will again

Fool on the roof, hes just foolin with you
Laughin it off is bout the best you can do
Fool on the roof, he will not take no checks
Youve got to pay by the dance and thats a natural fact

You better look out below theres a fool on your roof
That is some aggravation Im gonna tell you the truth
Hell rattle your dishes and hell run off your dog
And hell be dancin till dawn in the light of it all
