Ricky Van Shelton - Statue Of A Fool Lyrics

Somewhere there should be for all the world to see,
A statue of a fool, made of stone.

The image of a man,
Who let love slip through his hands.
And then just let him stand there all alone.
And there on his face, a gold tear should be placed,
To honor the million tears he's cried.
And the hurt in his eyes would show,
So everyone would know,
That concealed is a broken heart inside.

So build me a statue,
And Lord, build it high,
So that all can see.
Then inscribe, "The World's Greatest Fool."
And name it after me.
After me.
