A stranger came to town
Asking questions about your whereabouts
I told him that you'd gone to Pennsylvania

But he won't be fooled for long
No, he won't be foold for long
No, he won't be fooled for long, my love.

My love

I wish you could just say
What really happened
But they'd lock you away for good
Supposing that we drive to California

But we won't be fooled for long
No, we won't be fooled for long
No, we won't be fooled for long, my love.

My love

Well, maybe when this all blows over
You can take me out again
And we can just pretend
This never happened

But we won't be fooled for long
No, we won't be fooled for long
No, we won't be fooled for long, my love.

My love
My love
