The song you're actually thinking of was sung by Fontella Bass. See below:

POOR LITTLE FOOL

(Poor little fool)
(Why can't you see)
(This romance will never be)
It's too late
I'm too close, I'm too close to turn around, oh yes I am
It's just a matter of time (oooh)
I know I'll make him mine someday (oooh)

(He'll break your heart)
(And say goodbye)
(He'll leave you alone to cry)
I don't mind
And I don't care, I don't care what you say, no no no no
My love will be so true (oooh)
I'll make him love me too someday (oooh)

(Bridge)
I'll take my pride and toss it aside
And I won't feel ashamed when I cry
This pain I feel
Makes my love so real
And I know that heartaches, heartaches and tears they don't lie

(Don't be a fool)
(It's just a game)
(Can't you see you cry in vain)
It's no use
It's too late, it's too late to change my mind, yes it is
My heart is on the line (oooh)
I know I'll make him mine someday (oooh)

(Ooooh oooooh ooooh)

I'll try some more google search on the other one...

Gene, thanks SO much. I'll love you forever. I've been looking for these lyrics for so long.
I'm really embarrassed that you found them on a google search though! I'd tried & tried yesterday & not found them. Honest.
I must just be a bit thick I think. All I saw was track listings - couldn't see the wood for the trees. Sorry about that, I'll try to do better....

Cheers'm'dear

POOR FOOL
Ike & Tina Turner

I want to tell all of you
that ain't doin' nothin' for me
and can't do nothing for me
You should tend to your business
and leave mine alone
Because as far as this man is concerned
I wanna tell ya he's mine

(you've been a fool too long)
now let me tell ya he's mine
(wake up and he's gone)
yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh
(we know how you feel)
yeh eh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh
he's mine
(but is it love for real)
I'm not ashamed
(poor fool)
cause he's my man
(says who?)
and he's mine
(you've been a fool too long)
Now listen, this man is mine
he's my every thought
I'd give him prussia
if it could be bought
I'm not ashamed of nothing I do
I'd guide a missile if he told me to
'cause he's mine
(poor fool)
I know he's mine
(says who?)
The man is mine
(you been a fool too long)

And listen, if I make my bed hard
that's where I'm gonna sleep
you people talking means nothing to me
I work my fingers right down to the bone
doin' the things to please him right or wrong
'cause he's mine
(poor fool)
I know he's mine
(says who?)
the man is mine
(you been a fool too long)

ohh he's a mine
(you've been a fool too long)
and let me tell ya he's mine
(wake up and he's gone)
yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh
(we know how you feel)
yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh he mine
(but is it love for real?)
I'm not ashamed
(poor fool)
'cause he's my man
(says who?)
and he's mine
(you've been a fool too long)

And listen, I'm with my man in every way
Don't keep him hoppin' each and every day
I'll never hurt him or make him frown
I'm with my man if he's up or down
'cause he's mine
(poor fool)
I know he's mine
(says who?)
the man is mine
(you've been a fool too long)

And ohhhhhhhh he's a mine
(you've been a fool too long)
Now let me tell you he's mine
(wake up and he's gone)
yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh
(we know how you feel)
fade/yeh yeh yeh yeh
he's mine

Hi All
Can anyone please help me on these lyrics?
I used to have an Ike & Tina Turner CD with a song I really like on it. It went something like... poor little fool, why can't you see
this romance will never be
Its too late, its too late
I've gone too far & I can't turn around now
My love will be so true I'll make him love me too
etc...
If anyone knows the lyrics I'd be really grateful as I've lost the CD & can't find the lyrics on the internet anywhere.

Cheers
Kris
