Ooh wah, ooh wah
Ooh wah, ooh wah
Ooh wah, ooh wah
Why do fools fall in love?
Why do birds sing so gay
And lovers await the break of the day
Why do they fall in love?
Why does the rain fall from up above?
Why do fools fall in love?
Why do they fall in love?
Love is a losing game
Love can be a shame
I know, I'm a fool you see
For that fool is me
Tell me why
Tell me why
Why do birds sing so gay
And lovers await the break of the day
Why do they fall in love?
Why does the rain fall from up above?
Why do fools fall in love?
Why do they fall in love?
Why does my heart
Skip a crazy beat?
For I know
It will reach defeat
Tell me why
Tell me why
Why do fools fall in love?
Tell me why
Tell me why

Why Do Fools Fall in Love?
Artist: Alma Cogan
Album: Todo Latino (Vol 7)
Song Length: 2:21
George's Thoughts: An old 50's era Rock 'n Roll classic made popular by the Beach Boys that makes a great Jive song. Different versions vary from 40-43bpm in tempo. I like the "doo-wop" style intro on Alma Cogan's version. Great fun.
