A poignant country ballad, “The Fool” narrates the emotional turmoil of a woman confronting her partner’s lingering feelings for an ex-lover. Released in May 1997 as the second single from Womack’s self-titled debut album, the song showcases her traditional country roots. The music video, directed by Gerry Wenner, features Womack performing in a dimly lit bar, capturing the song’s melancholic essence. “The Fool” peaked at number 2 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart, marking Womack’s first top-five hit.
