Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
Out on [D]the road,
and a long long way from home
[G]Why must I be so,
must I be so misunderstood
[D]Whi[G]le my intentions,
my intentions all [D]are good
Wish only one time [F]that things
would [G]turn out like [D]they should

[Verse 2]
Just like they should
[D]Too many [F]times, too many [Ab5]times [A5]payin' [Dm]the price,
just [D]for the thrill
Too many [F]hearts, too many [G5]times,
[A5]over[Dm]kill[D]
So many [G]times, [G5]double around,
[Am]how many f[D]aces do reveal
How many [F]folks gettin'
[G5]to be ov[F]er t[Dm]he hill[D][Dm]

[Verse 3]
[G]She always told me things,
like those weren't made of sugar [D]and spice
[G]She always scolded me,
"Don't let the same dog bit [D]you twice"
[Am]Well I, Lord I've just[F] been
fooled [G]again

[Verse 4]
[D][Chorus]
Mama she [F]raised [G]no fool,
you did not raise no fool
[D]Mama I [F]ain't [G]no fool, I've
just been fooled [D]again
Mama she [F]raised [G]no fool,
you did not raise no fool

[Verse 5]
[D]Mama I [Dm]ain't[F] no fo[G]ol,
well I've just been fooled again
[D][Dm][C][D][C]

[Verse 6]
[Dm]Too many lies, [F]shame on [Ab5]the wives,
[A5]too many c[Dm]akes and e[D]at i[Dm]t too
[D]Too many [F]hearts [Ab5]goin' straight
[A5]down [D]the tube[Dm]
Hell [F]of a dude, did it [G5]but don't [A5]have
[Dm]the time and the [D]words for [Dm]use
[D]Too many round[F]s, too [Ab5]many t[A5]imes,
[Dm]over[D]use[Dm][G]

[Verse 7]
She's always telling [G]me,
"Just take your time, always [D]think twice"
[G]Forever scolding me,
"Don't let the same dog [Dm]bit you twice"[D]
[Am]Well I, hell I've just[F] been
fooled [G]again
[D][Chorus]
Mama I [F]ain't [G]no fool

[Verse 10]
[D]Mama she [F]raised [G]no fool,
