When Will I Ever Learn

Don Williams

You call me up at five to five, and you ask me if I'll drop by
That you need me, tonight you're all alone
Like the fool I am and the fool I'll be, I drove there anxiously
But when I got there, you were not alone

[Chorus:]
When will I ever learn that you'll never care about me?
You only build me up to bring me down again
When will I ever learn that you'll use me and abuse me?
Oh, tell me; when will I ever learn?

When will I learn, when will I get wise; you never apologize
I swear that this time I'm through with you
Like the fool I am and the fool I'll be, the next time you need me
Once again I'll give in to you

[Chorus]
