| The Richest Fool Alive |
| Patty Loveless |
| There's just no way of goin' back to change what's come and gone |
| But if I could go back in time I'd undo what you've done |
| I wouldn't look into your eyes and go completely blonde |
| Or listen to your pretty words and leave my heart behind. |
| If heartache were treasures and pain could be sold |
| If dreams were made of silver promises of gold |
| Tear drops were diamonds measured in lies |
| I'd have a broken heart worth millions and be the richest fool alive. |
| Solo(Fiddle) |
| Next time I listen to my friends take their advice to heart |
| And avoid all of this misery I could of ended from the start |
| But fools in love don't listen they don't know right from wrong |
| They see just what they wanna see and miss it when its gone |
| If heartache were treasures and pain could be sold |
| If dreams were made of silver promises of gold |
| Tear drops were diamonds measured in lies |
| I'd have a broken heart worth millions and be the richest fool alive. |
| I'd have a broken heart worth millions and be the richest fool alive. |
