(NOW AND THEN THERE'S) (Words & music by Trader)
(Now and then there's a fool such as I) Now and then there's a fool such as I am over you (Now and then there's a fool such as I)
June 10, 1958: RCA's Studio B, Nashville
(Now And Then There's) A Fool Such As I," was a special favorite of Tom Diskin's from the days when he and the Colonel had managed Hank Snow (who had the original hit with it in 1953). Neither of Elvis' companies owned any publishing on the song, which made it an unlikely single candidate, but Diskin felt it had potential and made a very uncharacteristic pitch to the Aberbachs to make a deal on the song. Chet Atkins's rhythm guitar lent real excitement to the lilting melody, giving it the kind of distinctive flavor.
(Now And Then There's) A Fool Such As I/I Need Your Love Tonight was on The Charts for 15 weeks, beginning March 23, 1959. Sales went gold with one million shipped one day after its release.

A FOOL SUCH AS I
Pardon me, if I’m sentimental
When we say goodbye
Don't be angry with me should I cry
When you're gone, yet I’ll dream
A little dream as years go by
Now and then there's a fool such as I
You taught me how to love
And now you say that we are through
I'm a fool, but I’ll love you dear
Until the day I die
Now and then there's a fool such as I
Now and then there's a fool such as I am over you
You taught me how to love
And now you say that we are through
I'm a fool, but I’ll love you dear
Until the day I die
Now and then there's a fool such as I
Now and then there's a fool such as I
Now and then there's a fool such as I
