Jimmie Rodgers' Last Blue Yodel (The Women Make a Fool Out of Me) Lyrics

I love the women, I love 'em all the same
But I don't love nobody, well enough to change her name

Women make a fool out of me

Hey my papa scolded me, my mamma she sat and cried
Oh my papa scolded me, my mamma she sat and cried
I got too many women for any little boy my size

And women make a fool out of me

When I'm in the parlour, the girls think it's a treat
Yeah when I'm in the parlour, the girls think it's a treat
Because even in the wintertime, they turn off the heat

Hey, but women make a fool out of me

Now flurry on me one time

Yeah I love the women, Lord I love 'em all the same
I love the women, I love 'em all the same
But I don't love nobody well enough to change her name

Women make a fool out of me

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
