"Seven Day Fool" is an R&B song written by American songwriter Billy Davis, and first recorded by American singer Etta James for Argo Records (a subsidiary of Chess Records) in 1961. The track was released both on a 45 RPM single (Argo #5402), paired with "It's Too Soon to Know", and on her album The Second Time Around (Argo #4011). Although not a big hit upon release, only reaching 95 in the United States, it has since become very well known on the Northern Soul and Mod scenes in the United Kingdom.
