I am trying to find out who did the song fool from the late 60's or early 70's.
I think it is a country song

Is this it?

YouTube - Olivia Newton John - Fool Country

Lyrics:
Fool,whatever you do you're reminded
Fool,wherever you go you won't find it
I'm really down on love, so save all your smiles
Ooh,I won't be needin' any love for a while

I'm really down on love, so save all your smiles
Ooh,I won't be needin' any love for a while

Fool,fool,fool
Fool,fool,fool
Fool,wherever you go you're a loser
Such a fool,I want you to know you're a loser

I'm really down on love, so save all your smiles
Ooh,I won't be needin' any love for a while
I'm really down on love, so save all your smiles
Ooh,I won't be needin' any love for a while
Fool,fool

I'm sure I should pass a law laid down
Declare you will never wear your face in a frown
Obey or be on your way, get on the first stage out of this town

There's me and my deputies, so shake it down
If you don't grin, we will take you in
So spread some sunshine around
Obey or be on your way, get on the first stage out of this town

No that is not the one. It starts off:
Fool you sisn't have to hurt her
Fool you didn's have to lose her
Fool you didn't have to love her but now her love is gone
etc.

Elvis!!

In Lousiana this song is considered to be Swamp Pop. The artist is John Wesley Riles.

Thanks for all the help. I found out that wayne newton did it first in 1969 but it did not go anywhere, then elvis did it in 1973 and hit the charts.
Thanks for the info,
