[Verse 1] I clocked in early Sweat on my shirt Kept my head down Did all the work I said be fair I said be true I held the line Like a fool would do They cut the corners I held the weight They took the ladder I took the gate [Pre-Chorus] And I watched them slide Right past the queue I brought my best They brought the glue Now I see it clear What a fool I been Worked for the prize While they crept in [Chorus] Biggest fool, biggest fool I played it straight Biggest fool, biggest fool Too late, too late Yodel-eh-hee I got played Yodel-eh-hee Hard work got laid Biggest fool, biggest fool That was me I wore my pride Then I lost my seat [Verse 2] While I built brick by brick They sold smoke and talk While I stayed late They took the walk I learned the truth In a cheap dark room The cheater smiles And the honest lose I kept my hands clean My pockets thin They made a game And I stepped right in [Pre-Chorus] And I watched them slide Right past the queue I brought my best They brought the glue Now I see it clear What a fool I been Worked for the prize While they crept in [Chorus] Biggest fool, biggest fool I played it straight Biggest fool, biggest fool Too late, too late Yodel-eh-hee I got played Yodel-eh-hee Hard work got laid Biggest fool, biggest fool That was me I wore my pride Then I lost my seat [Bridge] I’m laughing now But it stings like fire Took my trust And called it higher I should’ve known When the wolves all grin The cleanest hands Can still get in [Final Chorus] Biggest fool, biggest fool I played it straight Biggest fool, biggest fool Too late, too late Yodel-eh-hee I got played Yodel-eh-hee Hard work got laid Biggest fool, biggest fool That was me Next time, hermano I choose me
