Statue Of A Fool - David Ruffin

Somewhere there should be, for all the world to see

A statue of a fool made of stone

An image of a man who let love slip through his hand

And then let him stand there all alone

So, build a statue and, oh, build it high

So the world can see

And inscribe, 'The World’s Greatest Fool'

And name it after me

Mmm, and there on his face, a gold tear should be placed

To honor every tear he shed

And I think it would show and everyone would know

Concealed inside is a broken heart

So, build a statue and, oh, build it high

So the world can see

And inscribe, 'The World’s Greatest Fool'

And name it after me

So, build a statue and, oh, build it high

So that all can see

And inscribe, 'The World’s Greatest Fool'

And name it after me, yeah, yeah

And name it after me
