Statue Of A Fool Lyrics

Ferlin Husky Statue Of A Fool

Statue Of A Fool
by: Ricky Van Shelton


Somewhere there should be
For all the world to see
A statue of a fool made of stone.
The image of a man
Who let love slip through his hands
And then just let him stand there all alone.

And there on his face
A gold tear should be placed
To honor a million tears he cried
And the hurt in his eyes would show
So everyone would know
That concealed is a broken heart inside.

Chorus:
So build a statue and oh build it high
So that all can see
Then inscribe the World's Greatest Fool and name it after me.
