The Mistake I Made

I ain't got no claim to nothing, I don't mess with anyone, I walk my way Living in a masquerade. And one day I looked behind me At all the things I've done, That's the first mistake I ever made. I was born to a lonely woman In a town called Buffalo. Never knew the man Who never stayed. With my 12-string on my back I discovered every track, That's the first mistake I ever made. With a million hearts I've broken. I never kept the score. Memories of good love Hate to stay. But I still remember someone Who loved me so much more, That's the first mistake I ever made. So, when nothing's worth the living And in the night I look above. Prayed, about a million times I prayed. I know my story ended When I lost my only love, That's the first mistake I ever made. I was born to a lonely woman In a town called Buffalo. Never knew the man Who never stayed. With my 12-string on my back I discovered every track, That's the first mistake I ever made.
