    Story Behind the Song
    With this song, I wanted to write a no-nonsense blues number with all of the classic blues attributes. Of course, it still came out with more melodic devices than John Lee would have preferred, but that's just my style. I wrote it in an afternoon and this recording was cut live, except for the vocals, at SIR in Hollywood.

    Lyrics
    Foolish Love
    (c) 2001 by William Jennings House

    I've always loved you,
    Since I was three.
    No one before you,
    You're the only one for me!

    In every lesson,
    Even today.
    You're my obsession,
    what more can I say?

    Cause I've got it bad,
    Bad as a love can be!
    Have mercy up above,
    I'm crazy for your Foolish Love.

    You are so sweet,
    When you're at home.
    But, out on the street,
    They're telling me I'm not alone.

    Every bus driver
    Is driving you around.
    Uptown, downtown,
    Honey child, you get around!

    Baby, I'm mad,
    Mad as a boy can be!
    Have mercy up above,
    I'm crazy for your Foolish Love.

    (bridge)

    It's crime,
    And it's sin,
    The way you lie
    And the state I'm in!

    And, when the reaper
    Finally comes around,
    There's gonna be some sorrow,
    Over what you're laying down!

    Talking 'bout your Foolish Love...

    Wrote you a letter,
    To tell the truth,
    Let you know better
    That my love's a love for you.

    You said Honey
    You are so sweet
    Gimme some more money
    And then you hit the street

    Baby I'm bad,
    Bad as a boy can be!
    Have mercy up above,
    I'm crazy for your Foolish Love.
