D-DU-UDU
Nickels  and dimes,  memories and wines - she's  on his mind once  again.
The  same old stool,  the same old fool;  played by the rules, but didn't  win.
There's  an old love in his  heart that he can't lose.
He  tried forgettin', but he knows  that it's no use.
 ]
 He's got a fool hearted memory.
 It won't  let him see that she  walked out the door.
 He's got a fool hearted memory,
 And he  sits patiently  here every  night so it can fool him  more.
She  was his girl,  his only whirl,  that string of pearls that slipped  away.
A  thousand dimes,  a thousand times -  he doesn't mind what they  say.
He  fills the jukebox, and  plays the same old song.
He  fills his glass, and then he  turns her memory on.
 ]
 He's got a fool hearted memory.
 It won't let  him see that she  walked out the door.
 He's got a fool hearted  memory,
 And he  sits  patiently here  every night so it can fool him  more.
 He's got a  fool hearted memory.
 It won't  let him see that she  walked out the door.
 He's got a fool  hearted  memory,
 And  he sits patiently  here  every night so it can fool him  more.
